I recently finished these. A pair of convertible mittens. I improvised the pattern from an idea I got when a co-worker showed me the mittens she got from her Icelandic mother-in-law. They’re made from leftover pieces of yarn, and they’re meant to be for me since I don’t have any proper mittens.

I’m pretty happy with the result, given that I had to triple up on a thinner, red yarn, in the end, to have enough. There’s just one thing I’m very annoyed about. I wasn’t able to wear them because I had managed to make two left ones.

Things like that make you feel stupid, and I still didn’t have a pair of proper mittens. I decided to try and move the thumb and that solved the problem.
