notes
If your house is chilly in winter because it’s drafty or you’re saving on fuel, a light pair of mitts will keep your wrists and hands warm and toasty. I worked these mitts, one at a time, on two circular needles, my current favorite method for working small tubes. Feel free to use your own favorite method, be it magic loop or dpns.
