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

They'll be far too busy pulling hot trays of cakes from the oven to answer calls.

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.

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

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
