ReplyDeleteGreat job Sherry! Love the colors and the mittens came out nice.
ReplyDeleteSandy, on March 3 it should be 29 squares added to total not 20.
What a wonderful donation! Beautiful work! The mittens are fantastic...would love to know what pattern you used. I have yet to try a pair of mittens but I hope to give them a try sometime this week. Great job!
ReplyDeleteThanks all for the nice comments. I didn't realize how bright my hats and scarves were until I saw this picture! I will have to concentrate on dark solid colors next time around.
ReplyDelete@ Kim, I have a pattern that Annemarie and I have been using but it has a small amount of errors which between Annemarie and I we seemed to fix. It is a really easy pattern that I love after trying several different patterns. It is crocheted in one piece then the sides are sewn together. If you want a copy email a sherry.keever at yahoo.com
Kim, the mitten pattern is on our blog under the mitten tab. There are 2 versions one if from Bev's site, have forgotten the other off the top of my head.
ReplyDeleteSherry, stick with the colors you're using; these are so pretty! I think they will cheer people up while keeping them warm!
