Dinosaur mittens to keep your hands warm (and to have impromptu puppet shows!) Directions are provided for a T-Rex, a Stegosaurus, and a Triceratops.

Sizes:

Children’s S (Children’s L, Adult)
Shown in Adult

Children’s S: Ages approx. 5-7, 5” palm circumference
Children’s L: Ages approx. 8-10, 6” palm circumference
Adult: Should fit most adult hands, measures approx. 8” around palm, length is to fit.

Materials:

• Set of 5 US 7/4.5 mm dpns
• Stitch marker
• Stitch holder or waste yarn

Yarn:

MC: 150-200 yards worsted/aran weight yarn, green (sample used Brown Sheep Lamb’s Pride)

CC2: 10 yards worsted weight yarn, off-white (sample used reconned thrift store sweater yarn)

Okay, the T-Rex is actually an allosaur, as astute observers with knowledge of dinos will have noticed. The two are very similar, but they appear in different eras of dino history.
