My First Mittens

I have been knitting hats for my family and wanted to add mittens to go with them. For my first attempt, I decided to make some thumbless mittens for my one year old. The mitten string was becoming a bit monotonous.
Yay! They are beautiful. I always just crochet the string because it goes soooooo much faster. I have to really be into a project to make i-cord.
Thanks. Crocheting scares me. I have bad memories of my grandmother trying to teach me when I was four. It involved large rings (well, to a four year old) that kept falling off my hands and some curt words from said grandmother.
I bought an I-cord mill online from Caron.com. You can make four feet of I-cord in minutes! Only $16.99 just this month.
