tata-tatao-to pattern
dances with wools says ” The distinctive two-coloured patterned knitting which is widely known as ‘Sanquhar knitting’ … Today, there are about a dozen known, named, traditional patterns with as many variations of cuff patterns. Some of these have interesting historical anecdotes as to their origins” … the dedicated knitters at the Japanese website tata-tatao-to have developed a pattern based upon the research they completed on an original glove”

Wow, my husband’s Aunty from Sanquhar in Scotland made a pair of these Sanquhar gloves in 2 ply wool for my sister-in-law. Patterns are still on sale at the Sanquhar museum, and many gloves on display there too. Well worth a visit if you’re in the Ayrshire area.
I live very close to Sanquhar so it’s interesting to see this. Thanks.
