Notes

Using leftover yarn to make these mittens. Main color will be navy blue, lightest will be light blue, darkest will be charcoal. The yarn isn’t soft (right now) and is pretty thin thus I’m making a lining out of some of my absolute favorite handspun.

My SIL wears the mittens I make her until they are falling apart, so I know these will be well loved and constantly used during our Minnesota winters!

Used two largest needle sizes for the lining, which was at a different gauge.

These turned out so cozy and warm. Very glad I went with the lining.
