This year I’m lovingorange, for the first timein my life. I’ve neverliked it before; alwaysate the orange M&Ms

first. Lately, though,they have been thefavored ones.

When I saw the orangeand yellow at the yarnstore, I didn’t know whatthey would be, but Iwanted them with thesame craving as I havefor M&Ms.

The pattern just sort of developed on its own asI went along. I wanted akids’ mitten that wouldwork for both boys andgirls, and ended up witha design that works for just about anyone.

Imagine it in grays for aman, blue and yellow fora little boy, o r whatevercolor would match yourown winter coat! Theydon’t take much yarn. Ithink I’m going to spin

up some natural sheepy colored yarn for my own pair!
