The Pieni Kurre Oven Mitt wears the small-scale squirrel print that Aino-Maija Metsola designed in 2023, drawn with brush and ink and extending her tales from the forest. The fabric is printed in Helsinki, and the mitt has a padded lining and a hanging loop.
It is cut from unbleached cotton panama with 50% recycled cotton, and the padding is 50% recycled polyester. Unbleached and recycled fibres give the cloth a naturally lively colour, so small variations between pieces are normal. The mitt measures 15 x 31.5 cm in Sky Blue / Multicolour. Keep it away from oven heating elements and open flame.
Pair it with the Pieni Kurre pot holder and apron from the Marimekko collection.

DesignerAino-Maija Metsola
Aino-Maija Metsola designed Kurre in 2023, extending her tales from the forest. A lively brood of squirrels gathers and hides nuts across the cloth, drawn with brush and ink on paper after the squirrels she watched in her childhood yard. It is printed in Helsinki on kitchen textiles.

Hand-drawn in ink
Brush and ink give the squirrels lively, uneven lines.
A childhood memory
The motif comes from the squirrels in the designer's childhood yard.
Printed in Helsinki
The cloth is printed at Marimekko's own factory.
Recycled fibres
Unbleached cotton panama with half the cotton recycled.
Squirrels at work
Kurre shows a busy group of squirrels collecting and stashing nuts. Metsola painted the original on paper with brush and ink, so the lines keep the movement of her hand. The squirrels seem to dart across the cloth.
Small scale for small pieces
The pot holder and oven mitt use Pieni Kurre, the small-scale version. Both are padded, with a filling that is half recycled polyester, and have a hanging loop for the hook by the hob.
A towel with character
The kitchen towel is a blend of 48% recycled cotton, 31% organic cotton and 21% linen, a cloth with a naturally lively surface. It measures 43 x 70 cm and has a hanging loop on the long edge.
