Hestra Nordic Kids Mittens

Fair Isle knitting in a classic Nordic pattern gives the Hestra Nordic Kids Mittens their storybook look. These wool-blend knit mittens for babies and toddlers have a ribbed cuff that stays put, adding soft, natural warmth to little hands on stroller walks and snowy afternoons outside.

Why we like it:

The Fair Isle knit is the draw. It's a classic Nordic pattern with an heirloom look, on a mitten built to take the chewing and dragging that comes with little kids.

Features and Functions:

The knit blends mostly wool with a bit of polyamide. Wool brings the warmth and softness, while the synthetic adds strength to a mitten that will get chewed, dragged and dropped. A rib-knit cuff hugs the wrist to help keep the mitten on small hands that like to pull things off. These are everyday knit mittens rather than waterproof ski gear, and Hestra recommends hand washing.

Fit and Sizing:

Soft, stretchy knit fit sized for the very youngest kids, scaled for babies and toddlers. The ribbed cuff gives a snug, forgiving hold at the wrist.

Bottom Line:

A warm, easy everyday mitten for parents of babies and toddlers who want classic Nordic style for walks, sledding hills and cold commutes.
