These mittens are made from felted wool sweaters and lined with fleece. They are SO nice for the winter! They are $15 per pair, and that includes shipping. Let me know if you want to order a pair! I also have other fabrics if you'd prefer other colors!
(the gray pair is cashmere--my kids say they feel like kittens!)

Hi Shelia,
Received my blue gloves, love them! Are the mittens in the third picture still available?
I would love to have those, you ever make anything in green? |

CJ, I really can attest to Sheila's mittens. I have 2 pair and wear them everyday, even in our -30 temps my hands stay warm. She also made a pair for each of the grand kids and their hands never get cold. I am really liking that striped sweater, I might have to have another pair!
A little rain can straighten a flower stem. A little love can change a life.

CJ -- they're kind of just the size of my hand, which I think is average to large women's hand ~~ craft shows I have taken these to--they've seemed to fit the majority of the women and men that try them on (fit my husband's hand too) -- for more petite women's hands I make to fit my almost-13 yr old daughter :) If you have a hand size that you're concerned about, you could always trace your hand and I can make it from that size (that's what I did for my dad)
And as far as warmth -- here in VT we have plenty of cold :) and they're usually very warm -- the kids wear them to play in the snow etc and even when they're wet they're still a bit warm (you know how wool does that. . .)
Email me if you're interested! I have lots more colors too :)

Sheila,
I have "average" womens hands I guess. Outdoor equipment sites say to measure around your knuckles with hand flat, NOT including your thumb to get a size. My measurement is 8 inches, so I'm thinking that what you make will work just fine.
I NEED A NEW PAIR OF MITTENS DESPERATELY!! I've worn and patched my old ones soooo many times!
I'm not terribly picky about colors but something multi would be good, reds/blacks/dark greens/blues, etc. If those in the bottom photo are available still they would be great.
I can do Paypal if you can and if you email me with your Paypal address.
Let me know!
Thanks much!
CJ

Anyone who needs a pair of nice warm mittens, Shelia's are just the BEST. I wear them every morning to play ball with my
dogs and my hands stay nice and warm. |
