Sweater Mittens

I saw some awesome mittens made out of felted recycled sweaters today at a little shop. Now I just need a pattern for making the mittens. A vest pattern, the kind designed for using different types of fabrics so the thinking is done for me, would be really nice.

Between all of the wool skirts, sweaters and coats I'm thinking I can make myself some nice throws, a vest or two, and a couple pair of wool mittens. Who knows even a hat. I just need patterns.

Now to go dye some wool fabric, spin some more fibers, and felt felt felt away! Maybe I'll even work towards washing that 75# of wool this week! The Alpaca has baffled me though.
