Fabulous Mittens
I have to share these mittens with you. My mom made these for me. They arrived in the mail last week from Norway as a complete surprise.
Don’t you love the cute sheep that wrap around each mitten?
My mom knitted these in alpaca yarn, and they are double-knit (whatever that may mean). Not only are these mittens super-cute, but they are also incredibly soft and rather thick.
Now I can just keep wishing I lived in a place where it was just a bit colder than Phoenix.

Thanks! I love them too:)
I love your mittens! Here in the UK double knit is the wool thickness/weight, I think it is the same as worsted weight wool in the USA.
