HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!!!

For your Valentine's gift, HERE is another free lecture from the Teaching Company. This one is "St. Valentine's Day: A Medieval Origin."

My first vintage knit for charity is this pair of simple children's mittens in two strands of Peruvian Highland wool on size 8 dpns. I omitted the tassels because I figure they'd last about 10 seconds. There is also a matching hat but I refuse to use size 10.5 dpns.




Here is the cover of the pattern booklet. All the vintage patterns used for this vintage knitting marathon come from Vintage Knits. The patterns for sale change all the time so check back often.
