Mittens, Mittens, Mittens!
Happy winter! It is very cold here, so naturally my thoughts turned to
mittens... and hot cocoa. Let's talk about mittens first - here's a
great group of all things mitten-ish!
By the way,
homemade
cocoa is really easy and delicious!
Have a wool sweater that is too worn or outgrown to wear again? Turn it
into Mittens,
Cut and Sewn from Shrunken Sweaters. It is an easy project to
machine or hand sew. Added to Sewing

These Crochet
Mittens are designed for a women's size small, though you can modify
them. They're crocheted in parts and then crocheted together. Great way
to use up leftover yarn. Added to Crochet
Projects
Ultra-practical, though a bit challenging, Broad
Street Mittens, turn into "hobo" gloves when you need to get keys
out of your purse, put on chapstick, etc, etc. Added to Knitting
Projects
Protect your fingers from hot drinks and keep them extra warm, too when
you knit a Coffee

Rather stay inside and get some crafts done? Me, too! Cross-stitch these Gingerbread
Man Mittens for a sweet gift. I think this chart would also work up
nicely in plastic canvas for a Christmas tree ornament or package
decoration. Added to Needlecrafts

While you're keeping the homefires burning, enjoy this cute
video of Martha Stewart making Monster Mittens with a chatty
first-grader who steals the show.
Close the video to view the
directions and pattern. Added

If your kids always lose their mittens, perhaps they'll hang on to them
if you turn them into puppets with these animal and people puppet knitted
additions. Added to Knitting

Hat and Paw Mittens. Too precious! Also great for a cold weather
Halloween costume. Added to Sewing

Paint Chip Garland
Recycle paint chips from the hardware store into a festive and
contemporary Paint
Chip Garland. I think I'd like to add a cute rubber-stamped design
on mine. This could work great in other color schemes for other
holidays, too. Added to Christmas
