Nanna is a decorative belt featuring a pattern from a pair of mittens knitted by Nanna Guttorm from Ildskog in Porsanger in the 1960s, hence the belt's name.
Nanna is a shape-knitted belt, which means that you must be very careful with your gauge if the belt is to fit the user's waist perfectly.
The pattern provides the formula for calculating the number of stitches based on waist measurement and gauge.
After the belt is knitted, a strip of belt lining tape is sewn in the middle to help it maintain its shape.
Tips on where to buy belt lining tape and fasteners are given in the pattern.
