[NFB-Krafters-Korner] my first mittens

[Bernice Bird]

I'm pretty sure it was on this list. I'm going to try again with the tighter
rib.

I am following the pattern we were given, and I have decided to pull the
mitten out and use a strait knit 1 pearl 1 rib instead of the knit 3 pearl
1. It doesn't seem stretchy enough and I chose the middle size and it seems
too wide.

I had quite a time getting the first couple of rows done, even though I
understand how to do it. I am using 2 small circular needles instead of 4
double pointed needles.

Has anybody thought to make a chain stitch cord going from one mitten to the
other, so the child can't loose a mitten? I want to do that or buy some of
those clips that a child can attach the mitten to the sleeve of the coat.
Kids loose lots of things as we all know.
