Mittens

Good day friends!

I know it's getting late in the season to be 

making mittens, but I wanted to share these with

you. I love this pattern for crocheted mittens

and have made many pairs over the years.

They are made with worsted weight yarn.

This pair I made crocheting into the back

loop only to give the ridged pattern.
I've never done this before.
I also single crocheted them together along

the edges.

These two pair I made the way I usually crochet them.

I crocheted into each full stitch and sewed the edges 

together.  I prefer this without the ridges.
It's all a personal preference.

What I love about these mittens is that they are

a little smaller at the wrist and then are long

enough to be tucked up your sleeve and

you don't get a gap between your sleeve and your

mitten.

I have made them in the past and made them double thick.

I make 2 pair and put one inside the other and stitch them

together at the opening.  They are very heavy and warm

when I do this.  But they are really warm making them

with a single layer too.

If you are interested in the pattern for these mittens

e-mail me at Mamamaynard55@hotmail.com and

I will e-mail you the pattern.
Also please comment to let me know you are

e-mailing me.

Thanks for stopping by today,

I hope you have enjoyed your time here

and will come again soon.

Until then;

plan ahead, make some mittens for

next winter.
