Grey yarn - 100% Collie underfur; White yarn - 100% Malamute underfur. The underfur is spinned with sewing reinforced thread and rubbered into 2 threads.
In these children's mittens for more softness and comfort goat underfur of the same colour (grey and white) as all types of dog underfur is added. This combination of natural materials gives soft, fluffy and elastic yarn that fits perfectly to such accessories as children's mittens where softness is important.
These children's mittens are knitted with 'tail' pattern. It has some advantages. Firstly, it looks great. 'Tail' pattern will adorn every work if yarn is straight, not thick, and a work is knitted closely. But there is another advantage - 'tail' pattern implies combination of front and back side mashes which creates ribbing effect. It's one of the best choices for mittens, fingerless gloves, socks, gaiters, knee socks and other tight-fitting works. A hand can be narrow and wide of the same size. This means mittens knitted with 'tail' pattern will fit for both variants. This point is of no small importance for any knitted work.
The work doesn't have any signs of dog wool smell, as it has two stages of washing: firstly the yarn itself is washed, then the finished work goes washing. I don't use cutted wool, only underfur.
