The mitts are cute, but my fingers get cold too! When do people wear them?
ReplyDeleteThey look so warm and cosy! I've been thinking about making some of these for myself, as my hands get quite cold even indoors. I'll be checking out the pattern directly.
ReplyDeleteStaci, these are lovely gifts. And I liek the way you've tied them with a candy cane
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful, Staci!! Santa's little helper is doing fabulous work...LOL!!
ReplyDeleteThese are some cute mitts!!! They look so comfy and warm~
ReplyDeleteLove the mitts. Wish I could make something like that. Iam only gifted to cross-stitch and that is NOT a bad thing. Everyone seems to be in the Christmas spirit already! I love It. :)
ReplyDeleteHow very nice Staci :o)
ReplyDeleteI make bags of Caramel Corn for all of our teachers, so I know the work that goes into homemade gifts, but every year the teachers know that I do this and they look forward to it :) That's what counts!
Those are wonderful! only 35 days! egads....
ReplyDeleteThe elf certainly is busy and making such beautiful gifts! I love the presentation of the mitts. You are really making me wish I could knit. Can't wait to see what's next!
ReplyDeleteWow, they're wonderful. You will make lots of people happy with these lovely hand-made gifts. Do you have a 'Super Elf' T-shirt? ;-)
ReplyDeleteWhat great gifts! You go girl:)
ReplyDeleteLucky teachers! I love the way you have finished the mittens off with a ribbon and a candy cane. Very sweet.
ReplyDeleteLovely gifts for teachers!
ReplyDeleteWow- how do you do it?? You are like the elf from Rumplestiltskin weaving straw into gold!!! The mitts are great. I had the same question as Annie - when do people wear these? I have thought about it for some time and it's so cold here already, I can't imagine not covering my fingers.
ReplyDeleteWhat else is going on in the shop??
wow, amazing gifts - perfect for winter time! And they look so nice all together :)
ReplyDeleteGreat mittens - we could even wear those to stitch!
ReplyDeleteTell me Mrs Elf - are you wearing your elf suit with its jingle bells??
Oh Staci, what wonderful gifts! I love fingerless gloves, but I think these fingerless mittens will be even more functional! Thanks for the link to the pattern and a "new" site that I'll visit again.
ReplyDeleteOh what lucky teachers! Love how you added the candy sticks to make them festive. So pretty.
ReplyDeleteSmiles,
Lea
You are knitting up a storm and everything you make is so beautifully presented.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the pattrn link
Those are some lucky teachers to receive the mitts. Nice way you packaged them. You are so creative and get so much done. I am jealous.
