Amaka Gloves
Updated: Feb 2, 2020
After many months of working behind the scenes, the secret is out with the announcement by Kate Davies and Jeanette Sloan of their joint collaboration, Warm Hands, a book featuring 15 mittens and gloves patterns from well established as well as new knitting designers including my long gauntlet finger-less design, Amaka. I am so proud to be included in this wonderful collaboration.
“I was drawn to the colours for the gauntlets as they made me feel happy and represented the colours and warmth of the African continent.”
Working on the pattern, I was able use designs inspired by traditional African textiles. The name Amaka originates from Nigeria from the Igbo tribe. It means beautiful or precious and this is what I felt about the yarn, Kate Davies Designs Milarrochy Tweed, a mixture of wool and mohair. I was drawn to the colours for the gauntlets as they made me feel happy and represented the colours and warmth of the African continent.
The book is available from both Kate Davies and Jeanette Sloan and available as an Ebook from Ravelry. Amaka can also be bought from Kate Davies as a kit.

“Amaka Gloves” brought back a memory from my student days, when I learned how everyday items can tell stories about comfort, work, and care. I have always enjoyed noticing those simple details. Now, as a PhD student, I appreciate how curiosity can lead to deeper questions, and I work part-time at Affordable Assignments. During my college days, I struggled academically, which inspired me to help others. That experience still shapes how I approach Engineering dissertation writers and research challenges today. Great post! I really enjoyed reading your thoughts and the honesty behind them.☺️
Outdoor safety and key structural components are areas that have less of an impact on design but more on a safe functional home. While trees can increase your property value, uncontrolled growth or damage by trees can create serious hazards. In the same vein, garage doors do more than serve as a gateway; they protect cars, enhance security and contribute to curb appeal.
Whether its unfitting garage doors or troublesome trees, the tools like a tree removal cost calculator and reliable Garage Door Repair will certainly ease the hassles of time, money and stress. These services become even more important in locations like Chicopee with changing seasons that can have an impact on landscaping as well as your home itself.

The stitching and fabric quality are excellent, and it fits perfectly with a modern streetwear style. The design looks even better in real life and really stands out. Overall, I’m satisfied with my purchase, and I would definitely recommend Broken Planet hoodies and other items to anyone who wants stylish, high-quality clothing.
