Longitude mittens
Thick woolly mittens.
Started: 5th January 2022
Finished: 11th January 2022
Pattern
Mrs. Murdock's Mittens by Brenda K. B. Anderson
Materials
Whistlebare Cheviot Marsh 4 ply, colour Longitude (pale blue). Used double.
6 mm crochet hook.
Notes
Using up leftover wool from my Au jour le jour jumper. I seem to have lost the last pair of mittens I made and need a nice thick replacement so I'm using this 4 ply wool double.
Thick, but maybe a bit solid, and I should have made the cuffs slightly narrower so that they stay up better. Hopefully they'll soften a bit as I wear them.
December 2023
Mittens were pretty solid to start with, but softened up nicely. Very comfortable and beautifully warm. Then Mum borrowed them, and liked them so much I let her have them! I'll have to make another pair...
