My Olympic Red Mittens on NBC

Have you got your Red Mittens yet? They are rather hard to find around here…so I made some, and I’m working on making more.

I’ve sold 25 patterns so far, raising a grand total of $125 for the Penguins Can Fly Swim Team for disabled children and their able bodied siblings.

Yesterday I was thrilled to see an article about my mittens posted to the NBC Olympics website.  Have a look!

I hope that the Olympic spirit is alive and well where you are. There’s still time to knit yourself a pair of Olympic mittens before the games begin on Feb. 12th.

I’m going to cast on for another pair tonight!

All the best in 2010

    I would love to knit the Olympic mittens pattern, however, I don't have the option of obtaining the pattern online. Is there some way I could buy a hard copy of the pattern. Thanks.
