A snowflake and crochet mittens in winter wool



The sun is still shining and it's warm outside,an autumn so nice and bright.The winter is a long way from here but I couldn't resist doing a little snowflake/a little doily.I'm in a Snowflake CAL an every Monday some women in the world crochet a snowflake.Most of the ones I have made have been gifts to friends.Mostly used in the Christmas tree but this one can a doily,a small one.

From Hege in Norway,a swapfriend for August, I'v got a lovely yarn I have used for crochet mittens anf felted in the washingmachine(40 degrees).It must be yarn not superwash prepared.You also use a special soap.Soft and warm and so beautiful.Hege thank you once again.The yarn is just perfect.

Lovely snowflake and mittens, Ulla! The felted mittens look so professionally made :)

Thank you Pascale and Mimi

I'm so happy for them both.
The mittens are so wooly after felting them.Before felting it didn't look any special at all.It's a norwegian yarn so so good for felting and easy to crochet with.

And in October November we need mittens.
