Tutorial: Leather soled mittens

Erin from Sewbon shares a tutorial at The Sewing Rabbit showing how to make a pair of leather-soled mittens. These mittens are made for cold weather! They’re lined with fleece so they’re extra warm and have ribbing at the wrist to keep the cold air out. The leather soles allow you to grip items, because what good is a pair of mittens if you have to take them off every time you need to turn a doorknob? Go to The Sewing Rabbit for the tutorial.
