I have three pairs of mittens;
Yellow, red, and blue.
If I ever lose a pair,
I will still have two.
But it never works that way,
That’s not the way it’s done.
I never seem to lose the pair
All I lose is one!
Always trying to plan ahead, I made my daughter three.
Here they are, lined up pretty, for the world to see.
It was a tough squeeze,
but in the end I did prevail
and joy of joys - they even fit me :)
- Yarn used: found here
- Pattern: flying by the seat of my pants, in other words I winged it :)
- Needles: US 3 - so they are nicely dense and very warm.
One stocking stuffer down, to many to think about to go. :) I have already started a pair of Maine Morning Mitts for the eldest son, and they are zooming along quite nicely.
Knitter out :)

*grin* That was just too cute. :) I love the mitts and I know that Missy will too! Your handspun is beautiful, it’s awesome to see it put to good use.
I had so much fun last night I think I burst a blood vessel. :)
Nice! And you’re so smart to make an extra.
That’s very smart thinking!
Just beautiful! I love all three of them. Your daughter is a lucky girl!
Gorgeous!
Very cute! Smart idea to make three, but boy oh boy did you cut it close!
