Customer Reviews
really worth the effort!!.. very warm and comfortable.
I received this mitten pattern for free. I haven't started the pattern yet but it looks like they're going to be nice warm mittens for someone as a Christmas present!
These will be my go to mittens all winter.
Just look at them! Small enough to put all my standing attention into without getting frustrated. Because I can take only so much stranding.
Thank you for making these directions available. Fun to make.
The pattern is well written. Previous double knitting experience can help. The charts could have been created a bit darker and larger print. It’s very hard to see the line numbers. But I’m enjoying making the mittens.
