Done!!!


I suppose I shouldn't tell you that I have all of these done for my Christmas box for next year....that wouldn't be nice would it?  Methinks I can feel the hatred for starting so soon flowing in my direction already!  So....I won't tell you that they're for Christmas and just tell you that I finished a whole funch (hah - I was going to type 'bunch' and it came out 'funch'....just as my brain was wondering what you would call a whole lot of mittens.  Funch it is!).  Wonder if I should submit my new word to Funk & Wagnall's??



Ten for women and six for men
Pattern can be found HERE.  
NOTE:  I enlarged the pattern to make the mens


Another quote from an anonymous source..."Friendship isn't about who you've known the longest, it's about who walked in to your life, said "I'm here for you", and proved it"

  3. Those owls are so cute. Maybe even I could try and make one. The denim art by Ian Berry was amazing.

  4. There you go again.....Miss "look what I've made for next Christmas"....though.....your whole funch of mittens are very cool. At this rate you will have everything stitched up for Christmas, by the end of February!! Love that sweet bag knitted from scraps of wool and the denim art is amazing.

  8. You are one amazing lady to have created so many mittens in such a short period. Do you crochet or knit them in your sleep? They look fantastic and the patterns too.

  9. Congratulations on finishing all your mittens!
    The little owls are so cute as is the photo of the black and white kitty sitting in the owl's basket after
    kicking them out.
    I think the cat is saying, 'No, I'm cute!'
    I also saw the adorable little poodles, white, grey and pink.
    I got my cute fix.
