Sweet kitten mittens in a full range of sizes. Mittens are knit in the round then felted in a washing machine.Why felt a pair of mittens? Because felted wool is not only warmer and more durable than knitted wool, it is naturally water repellent and resists soiling. That makes it a perfect choice for snowman makers, fort builders, sledders and snowball throwers. The cuff and simple embroidery details are applied post-felting. Complete instructions are provided for how to felt the mittens in a washing machine.
