When my children (now 31 and almost 34) were small, I had a pattern for crocheted Santa Claus mits. The front and back were done separately and sewed together. The back of the hand featured a loopy white beard. I think my daughter may still have one mit and I'll ask her to take a photo.
I cannot find the pattern which I think probably originated in Family Circle or similar magazine. Does anyone have a similar pattern? Now that I have 4yr old grand-twins, I'd like to make those again.
That's it. Thanks. I actually came across them myself awhile back, but had by then found a knitted pattern that I thought I'd use until I found it difficut to interpret how to make the loops. (I knit sort of left handed and sort of European style so some interpretation was required.) By then, I had difficulty finding the crocheted one again. This is right on time for Christmas.

PS I'll try to find the knitted pattern and post a link in case others are interested.
(The test did) I may do the knitted version instead if I can figure out the loops. But I appreciate the crocheted version. I KNOW I can do them as I made them for my own kids. In fact DD#1, the mother of the twins, still has her pair.
Here's one pair which I just finished. Did three all together - one for each of the grand twins and one pair which was given to the "Christmas boutique" at the local food bank where I volunteer. Hope to get more done next year for the church bazaar.
Thanks. Now all I need to do is FIND them. DH brought the grand-twins over yesterday afternoon and I put both pairs up so they wouldn't see them. WHERE????? LOL
