The craft of thrum knitting originally came from England and Ireland. The word thrum is associated with English woolen mills, the thrumb being the leftover warp ends in weaving. The patterns on the mitts, tiny V-shaped stitches, are created by the thrums. The patterns are small and whimsical, made from natural un-dyed alpaca rovings.

We have lots of colours and combination. Special orders take 4-6 weeks.

The thrum mitts from Spinning Wheel Alpacas contains 100% alpaca yarn and 100% Spinning Wheel Alpaca rovings (Home Grown in Ontario). Products made from alpaca is stronger, warmer than wool and soft as cashmere.
These one of a kind hand warming delights are hand knit by a talented thrum knitter.
