In Aurora Borealis Mittens, designer Shannon Okey celebrates the textile traditions of northern climes by remixing visual patterns collated in the renowned Íslensk sjónabók. The sjónabók, a collaboration among many Icelandic museums, features 700+ pages of imagery drawn from textile and other decorative object collections all over Iceland. With more than a dozen mitten patterns (and a bonus hat), you'll knit up a storm and stay warm no matter what the conditions outside!
