...anyways...
Take a look-
I made these in sections (or pieces) and sewed them together, quite the same as the St. Patty's gloves I posted on St. Patrick's Day. I used...
- size 10 1/2 needles
- three colors of standard yarn (nothing special): pink, white, and black
The pieces I made:
- eight same-sized black circles for the eye pupils and nostrils
- four same-sized white circles for the eye whites
- one, white, one black, and four pink ear shapes.... As you can see, one of the ears on each mitten is the thumb part. A pink ear shape is sewn on the bottom. The black ear shape and white one also have pink on their undersides. They were just sewn together, then sewn onto the mitt.
- six different black spots... Three go on each mitten. I just made random shapes for these, even more unorganized and left to my whims than my "pattern making"... Just knit and add/remove loops whenever, keeping them at a reasonable size.
- two white thumb pieces, which are just rectangles the length of a thumb and folded diagonally. One of these days I will show you how to do these things step-by-step with pictures, but not today as I'm dedicated to showing you my mittens.
- four pink rectangles for the nose
- four sloping rectangle things for the wrist part... basically look at your hand from the middle of your palm to past your wrist... this is the shape I'm talking about.
I'll now leave you to your imagination as to how to put that together... Someday, I shall also post real patterns I make for you to follow, as these are just kind of "run-throughs" of things I've made. Making a pattern should be fun!! :) Hope you have a good Easter!
Be brave!
