Mittens are the best thing ever to knit!!!! Seriously I want to make everyone I know mittens, if you are expecting a Christmas gift from me this year prepare yourself... there is a good chance it will be mittens!
Whoever thought knitting people scarves was a good idea?!?
Here are some reasons why knitting mittens is the bomb diggity:
1) you can finish a really cute pair in ONE WEEK!!! Which is very important to me since it seems like every scarf I knit ends up being a ridiculously epic long project.
2) They are far more useful than a scarf, think about it. If you are freezing in your car in the morning are you more concerned about wrapping a scarf around your neck or putting mittens on so you can touch your steering wheel without you fingers turning into popsicles.
3) Mittens look really professional, making them is sweet because people think you put in SO much time and effort to make them when really it was WAY less time that it would have taken to make anything else.
4) They also look way harder to make than they really are, thereby making you look like a super skilled knitter.
5) You can sing the song "Three little kittens, lost their mittens..." while you are knitting!
MITTENS ROCK, GO MAKE SOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
and if you want a super easy and beautiful pattern I recommend the basic cabled mittens pattern that a friend of mine found on ravlery.
