Selbu Mitten Class

 This month I'm "traveling" to Norway and taking a mitten class from the lovely Patricia. Patricia raises a heritage breed of sheep on her farm across the lake from Selbu, Norway. The class has been broken down into weekly lessons which can be viewed over and over if necessary. Norwegian cast on, double pointed needles, setting up the the back and palm of the mitten as well as a few Norwegian words have been learned.  If any difficulty arises she will pop up an additional tutorial. I thought I'd properly completed my thumb gussets until I viewed a tutorial Patricia had uploaded. She explained how to use your phone to flip the mitten chart and BAM, I realized the left mitten gusset was wrong! I ripped it out and completed it correctly, learning a valuable lesson.    Class will be completed the middle of October but I've signed up for Patricia's next class, Selbu Socks.
