Tyranny Like Hell is not Easily Conquered



I finished my first mitten - the left - with the new design changes. I love it – it’s beautiful. This one, just like the right one contains quotes from "The Crisis" by Thomas Paine. How much more Revolutionary War can they be?

The walnut-dyed brown and onion-dyed yellow wool is a nice contrast and the lettering really pops. I've already started the right mitten.

I want to have this pair done by 2 December so that I can wear them to our Revolutionary War demonstration at the Carlyle House in Alexandria, Virginia. I should be able to get quite a lot done back and forth on the train as we travel for Thanksgiving.
