It's the Perfect Storm for Red Mittens

Yesterday, while I was watching the snow fall all day long through the studio window while I was sitting warm and snug inside I caught sight of this beautiful red hand dyed alpaca/wool blend.  I only had one small ball left.  What to do?  What to do?   Then I remembered that I had one small grand nephew, my friend and relative Waits, who was in need of mittens.  Kismet -- it was meant to be.  These are knit using my DNA mitten pattern, which is what I use when I just want to make mittens without too much heavy thinking.  You can see the pattern in the post below.

    About Martha


    The Threads of Meaning is a collection of my hand made creations and the materials I use to make them.  I quilt, sew, spin, knit, crochet, weave, make dolls, rugs (hooked and braided) and tat. I have had articles in Art and Antiques (May 2001) and American Quilter (Ultimate Projects 2004). I have sold work to the State of Hawaii and some very dedicated private collectors. I dye my own fibers and use vintage and new materials. I tend to prefer traditional techniques and natural materials used in innovative ways.
