Excellent video instruction, Nancy, as always! I live in Southern California, but I think will knit a pair for my aunt in Montana, just because it looks like fun! Thanks!
Nancy Wynn
I'm glad and they really are fun to make. Keep in mind that thrummed mittens are quite therapeutic for people with arthritis in their hands - regardless of the climate they live in!

First time I've heard of thrumming. Thank you. What happens with the loose roving? Is it just left for warmth?
Nancy Wynn
The roving is left inside and it forms a warm layer. Thanks for watching ; -)
