Kat at Just Crafty Enough made it through her year of mittens, and for December she has a double feature with mom and me mittens inspired by Frozen.
The blue and white color scheme gives them a frosty feel, and the snowflakes, swirls and hearts offer a nod to the movie that’s still pretty traditional.
They’re also just really cute. I know my daughter would love them, for building snowmen and beyond. They also have a really long cuff, not all of which is ribbed, which is kind of interesting and really functional because it means there won’t be a gap between mitten and coat when playing outside in your own frozen landscape.
Do you know a Frozen fanatic who would love these? I’d love to hear about it.

Jorid Linvik’s Big Book of Knitted Mittens:
45 Distinctive Scandinavian Designs is sure to inspire you to want to knit some fun mittens, whether embellished with classic motifs like birds, hearts, moose and classic colorwork designs or those with a more modern feel liks guitars and skulls, a giraffe, penguins or a turquoise lizard.
The book includes a lot of instructions on how to make your mittens come out right, including a discussion of how different gauges can give you different sizes of mittens (and which mittens can be worked to different sizes for kids and adults). The charts are a little different from others you might have seen in that they show how to divide the stitches on the needles and where to place the thumb.
