I discovered a thumb-less pair of mittens in a basket of yarn. There were 9 stitches on holders. So I decided to finish the mittens and reclaim the holders!
Actually one thumb was on a holder, one was using a cable needle as a holder. I quickly added a thumb to each.
These were knit with Brown Sheep Bulky from a very old pattern from my knitting instructor. The Minnesota Mitten was originally written for worsted weight yarn, but I have made multiple pairs in bulky weight yarn.
D2 thinks the mittens were intended for her, but when she tried them on today, they were a little snug. I am still thrilled they are done. I gained a Finished Object, a stitch holder and a cable needle!
