Felted Mittens

The mittens are progressing quite nicely. I just need to do the thumbs and weave in the ends before felting.


I have not had very good luck using my washing machine to felt items, so I am thinking I will do what was suggested in the Fall 2007 issue of Knitty (Other Handy Uses for a Plunger) and use a bucket, plunger (a new one to use for felting only), and some tennis balls.
