These mitts will fit a hand that is between 7” to 8″ hand size measured across knuckles and are 14” long. These hand knit mitts are made of dark indigo blue stocking weight 100% wool that is mule spun (which simulates hand spun). These incorporate details from extant mitts that are hand knit or are repurposed stockings. Furthermore, there is a reference in Linda Baumgarten’s What Clothes Reveal in which a knitter advertises that she will remake old stockings into mitts.
