Fake-Out Thrummed Mittens

Thrummed Mittens originate from Newfoundland and Labrador. They are special mittens where little wisps of unspun wool roving, called “thrums”, are knit into the mitten. These thrums felt over time with repeated wear to form a fleece lining that keeps your hands very warm.
