In the past month alone, we have lost:
- one of Seb's red birthday gloves
- a purple mitt of Sophie's
- a pair of grey knitted mitts
- an old blue mitten
- another old blue mitten (but sadly from a different pair...)
- one organic lip balm (after only 6 minutes).
Please, please let winter be over.
UPDATE - -------------------
Obviously, nobody from the weather forces reads the wedgley blog because there are reports of snow on Monday and below freezing weather on and off all next week. Hmmm Congo has some appeal right now.
UPDATE 2 -----------------------
It's snowing/hailing/sleeting/raining today (Monday). But that's nothing compared to Saturday, when we spent the day outside (under-dressed) in 1 degree temperature and gale force winds that drove the real temperature down down down and drove us into any shelter we could find at the Maple Syrup Festival. Sunday was gorgeous though.

String. Attach each mitten to one end with safety pins or actual sewing. Thread through armholes. Job done.
I believe the household knows a few stringers, who by definition are always looking for extra work. I am sure they would be happy to string your strings for you. I on the other hand can barely string a few words together.
We do have a stringer or two lting around. But the main stringer tried string earlier in the winter and a mitten fell off days later. It turns out that the "tension cord" really must be very strong - i.e. braided or nylon or something.
