Reign of Winter Mittens

SO COOL!!!

SO COOL!!!

Actually I'd imagine they're quite warm.

Sorry, somebody was bound to say it...

Dude, I can't believe that after a year of living in Montana... after 20 in Florida... I actually am going to knit myself some mittens for the winter.

SO COOL!!!

Temperature humor aside, my reaction exactly.

Mentioned this to my wife. She took a look.

"What? Sweet! I have a new-found respect for your hobby."

Thank you, Judy.

Concurrin'! This is awesome.

But I can't stop imagining them as oven mitts in scenes involving children and ovens. :O

(have you considered Reign of Winter sock hats? Keeps the head warm!)

edit-Also wonder if someone could sneak these into any art order involving Irrisen commoners, with one just wearing their mittens...

I hope the holiday card has Feiya or Lini knitting them. That would be awesome. Or maybe Balazar wearing the hat version next year. Crazy gnomes don't get enough art appearances.

I love these so much, Judy!

And witches being pushed into them?

I'm so glad you all like them—they were so much fun to design and knit! And Mead, I totally want to see yours when you're done!

Question: What do you mean by "sock hat"? Do you mean a toque/beanie, or do you literally mean one of those hats with a big sock at the top? It actually wouldn't be too hard to use these motifs in a hat pattern. I'm imagining a ring of dancing huts around the body of the hat, and snowflake earlaps...

Now I'm itching for some quality time with Excel!

I think the toque/beanie is closer to what I was thinking of. I was visualizing something between that and the "Link hat", whatever the proper name for that is.

This is a common problem for me, I can see plenty of "medieval/fantasy hats" that I remember from artwork/cartoons/videogames/movies/books from my childhood but I have no clue what they're actually called. I usually have to reference another work of fiction entirely...

"You know that Ragged Cap from Skyrim. That's what my alchemist is wearing, except with a little dangly bit towards the back."

"Oh, like the leather cap from Diablo 2?"

"Yeah, that!"

Also, :D!

Extremely awesome Judy!

Wow! Love these, Judy!

Fenomenal!

That is just too cool...or warm, as the case might be :)

Irrisen Sock Monkey Hat please!

Do you mean the Liripipe?

Let there be hat—I've added a chart for a beanie as one of the photos on the Ravelry page! (Might split this off as a separate pattern, and maybe add ear flaps, as time permits.)

Quick instructions: Same gauge, yarn, and needles. Cast on 120 sts, work corrugated ribbing for about 1/2", and work 5 repeats of the chart. Optional: Top with braid or pom-pom. For smaller heads: Take the needle size down to US 2 or 3. For bigger heads: Adjust brim length, or since the hat chart is the same width as the mitten chart, you can just use the year or gate/tree motifs to add length.

Oh wow, awesome update! I'm passing this along to some folks.

I can totally see Irrisene people wearing these now. :)

Okay, that I know. I think I'm thinking of something else still, but that's probably best kept to another thread.

These are awesome!

We need to get someone to do a hat pattern with the goblins on it!!
