Favorite Mittens

<p>Robin Hansen can justifiably claim to be the person who started the groundswell of interest in roots knitting patterns for mittens. When<em> Fox & Geese & Fences: A Collection of Traditional Maine Mittens</em> was published a generation ago, it was an instant success, and nary a knitter above the age of thirty has not heard of it. It was followed by a second, equally inspiring collection: <em>Flying Geese & Partridge Feet: More Mittens from Up North & Down East</em>. <em>Favorite Mittens</em> is a compilation of some of the most popular traditional designs from Robin's groundbreaking first two books, presenting these tried-and-true patterns in a new format, with step-by-step directions revised and updated for ease of knitting, thanks to the helpful feedback Robin has gotten from the knitters who flock to her workshops all around the country.</p>
