Finished first mitten of the larger adjusted pattern. Will make 2nd mitten to match. I should have enough yarn left to make a 2ns mitten to match the first one that was too snug. I’ll give that pair to someone they will fit.

Finished the 2nd mitten, they fit much better than the first attempt. Still have no love for color work, so it’s doubtful I’ll be making more.

There was very little of the Chestnut Brown left after finishing the 2nd mitten and I think the color is discontinued. So unless I can find a skein the smaller mitten won’t be getting a match.
