Hi All, When I was in my late 20s my sister gave me some beautiful bright green knitted mittens with bright embroidery on them. They had a wide cuff and were so big I couldn't stick them in the pocket of my coat. I didn't want to lose them so I put them on a string! Besides not losing them another convenience was that when I came inside I could throw my hands down and they'd both fall off. Very like the ice hockey players when they throw down their gloves to get in a fight <G>.
I am also a big fan of mittens because of being able to double up on hand protection. It gets that cold here too! Single digits Fahreneit is when I go for two layers, I think. Jane in Vermont, USA where we're having the big Christmas celebration tomorrow. I'll be writing more after that!
