Crocheted mittens made to look like a little brown bear, in a soft beige, with a string to thread through the coat sleeves so they never go astray. They turn a cold walk to nursery into something to look forward to, and make a lovely present to find at the bottom of a stocking.

Handmade in a child's size recommended for ages 2 to 5. Each mitten is 16 cm long including the cuff and 7 cm wide across the fingers, with a 4 cm thumb.
