to knit mittens in March?
to roll your eyes at people who knit mittens in March?
to release a mitten pattern in March?
I'll take all three. I've released the Alice in Wonderland mitten pattern, I will be knitting a modified extra small pair for Sadie, and I will, no doubt, be rolling my eyes at myself for knitting mittens when it's so Spring-like outdoors.
Alice in Wonderland Mittens ($5.95)
I don't know about your weather, but it's been disturbingly Spring-y here. That doesn't usually happen until the end of April. I'm secretly (or not so secretly) hoping for just one more cold snap so I can wear my new mittens without sideways looks from confused Calgarians.
I also wanted to say that the notes and comments I've received about these mittens have been so lovely. Thank you for such a warm reception,...even if it is March :)
According to EZ, mittens are good for warmer weather knitting!

Lovely! Since our Colorado winter is NEVER going to end, mittens make sense.

But... they're so pretty! How could they NOT want to wear them too?! Or nod and think it's perfectly normal to wear something so gorgeous just a bit longer... Hmph! Especially since the weather is so variable...
