Mittens... Latvian mittens... Latvian NATO mittens.

What a unique gift, a pair of mittens unlike the other 4,499 pair. :thumb2: Quote:

What a purl of an idea. It'll keep them in stitches. But how will they operate their mobile phones?

No glove; no love.

It would be cool to have a pattern for those, but I don't know if my meager knitting skills would be up to it. I've never done multicolor pattern work.

"...traditional mittens steeped in Latvian folklore..."
I don't remember ever seeing Latvia making mittens. Maybe Simka made them while Latvia was busy working in the garage. |
That's Latka, not Latvia, in the garage. :headshake

No doubt they're a close-knit group...

This thread is incomplete without some kittens.

bottom row right-hand side, red background with yellow hexagon pattern and pairs of black dots Three rows above this one, the same pattern again. 5 rows above that one and slightly to the right, the same pattern again. |
they might be different on the inside

Even if the patterns appear identical, you always screw something up somewhere along the way, making each one unique.

Pointy mittens
Lots of stitches. The knitters have apparently been told not to use the swastika on the mittens. Delegates will also be given honey. I wouldn't want to risk a jar of honey in my luggage, and liquids are frowned upon as carryon items. Hmmm... http://www.metro.co.uk/weird/article...4&in_page_id=2
