This pattern includes the instructions and graphs for all 9 mittens; snowflake, reindeer, heart, sailboat, whale, tree, sheep & bunny. They are sized for children and women and the motifs match back to the several other of my patterns (#1, #2, #3, #4, #5, #6 & #7). They are knit with worsted wt yarn at a gauge of 5 1/2 sts = 1” which is on the tight side for worsted making them extra warm.
Also, this has been popular as pattern for those who knit for charities; church bazars, school fundraisers etc.. Mittens with motifs are fun for kids and also a great way to use up your odd bits of yarn!
Happy Mitten Knitting!
