I have now finished my first pair of mittens. My first mitten came out large enough for Hagrid's hand and caused much laughter, when I finished the second mitten I photographed them together.
Then I pulled out/frogged the larger mitten and knitted another. The photos in electric light don't show the rich red colour but they do look lovely and are very warm to wear.
Love the giant mitten. I used to keep my tuck shop money in my mitten on the way to school. If I'd had a mitten that size I'd have had room for more than the 2p it cost to buy a bag of crisps!
I am sure that Hagrid would be most grateful for a pair of gloves. LOL...I am currently reading Harry Potter and it seems to snow alot at Hogwarts so I am sure he would like them.
Hi Jane, because I enjoy your blog and your giant mitten so much I have picked you for a 'You Make My Day Award' - pop over to my blog to see what it's all about :) Leigh xx
How funny, but in the end they really did turn out nicely!
ReplyDeleteLovely mittens - but I can see that the large one might be a bit difficult to use! Lucy x

ReplyDeleteThey really do look cosy though.
