Knit the coziest mittens you could ever dream of! With a thick, soft cushion of insulating fibre on the inside, they’re the key to instantly warm fingers. The secret is thrumming, a traditional technique used to create super warm mittens in chilly Newfoundland and Labrador. Every few stitches a wee bit of unspun fibre is worked into a stitch creating a fun pattern on the outside. The loose ends create a thick, fluffy layer on the inside just like a sheepskin. We will be using the Magic Loop for knitting small circumferences - another tool to add to your knitting toolkit. This class is ideal for intermediate knitters who are comfortable knitting in the round. 

Please bring: A copy of the pattern (https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/easy-mittens-with-thrums); appropriate yarn (including roving), needles, and notions.
