Several Christmas's ago my hubby gave me a pair of mittens made from recycled sweaters. He paid a fortune for them and I love them. Since then I have seen them in several upscale boutiques and I thought how fun it would be to make some. So I found a tutorial here and made several pairs as Christmas gifts and then I got several custom orders.
I now have all my friends thrifting for wool sweaters for me. I really love making these. Wearing these fun mittens is the only part of winter I will miss.
Stay warm!!!!!!!!!
