I know that conventional wisdom is that mittens are warmer than gloves because all your fingers being in one space keeps them warmer than each having their own little tube.
But what if you want something even warmer?
Why not line your mittens with another mitten made of luxurious alpaca yarn?
That’s what Mieka John did with her Heerlen Mittens. They have a pretty textured pattern on the outside and on the inside, a fluffy fingering weight lining. That extra layer can make a big difference when it’s really cold outside!
You can find this pattern on Ravelry.
