New mittens 🪡
•
For the last two days I've made myself a new pair of mittens. This time a thin leather pair that can be worn on their own or as a rain/wind layer on top of other pairs. The leather is from an old pair of broken leather trousers I bought second hand which I've stained this dark brown colour.
•
I felt the need for more folk touch, which led me to making a kavelfrans. It's a much looser one than many folk clothing objects have BUT it was my first ever try so next time it'll be a denser one! It's made with plant dyed wool yarns.

Folk mittens with fur cuff
•
As a craft exchange with a friend I've made a pair of mittens for them! First pair I made some how disappeared into the void but now a better and fancier version. It's my first time working with a fur cuff but I'm very happy with the outcome. The fur is as ethical as it can be. Let's hope these make it across the ocean without disappearing. Knock on wood.
