Have you got your mittens?
When I was little, playing in the infrequent British snow meant wearing many, many layers of clothes including hat, scarf and mittens. So I've made a mitten to keep those chilly fingers warm. I cut the shape from felt, embroidered it using 2 strands of white stranded cotton, mounted it on watercolour paper, added the ribbon and finally the fluffy trim.

ReplyDeleteWhat an unusual idea!It works really well. Those of us brought up in British winters know what you mean about the layers of clothes, and mittens on a string!

ReplyDeleteSnow is something we usually are without here in the south of Sweden. Winter usually means and icy wind and that it rains horisontally. Great with mittens then too. Loved your tag!
