What was your inspiration?

I actually saw this done on a hat years ago on a now-forgotten website. My hubby needed mitts and I wanted to do something fun with them.

What are you most proud of?

He wears them! ha.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Morse code takes up a lot of space - if you're doing mitts, keep your message short!

Great mittens, shy guy. ; ) These would be great for a boy scout.

I loved your mittens even before I noticed the morris code, better yet they're for an adult. What nicer way to say "I love you" special mittens and a secret message too. Are you making him a hat to match?

Thanks! No hat, he is not a matchy type of guy.
