That's what I've knitted from the rest of my
Ivy League Vest yarn.
Short mittens, very soft and warm. I love this autumn berry colour.
Double moss stitch.

Короткие митенки, мягкие и теплые, чудесный ягодный оттенок. Двойной рис.
A couple of sweet baby hats. Little Rose was knitted with double moss stitch.

Детская шапочка, связана двойным рисом.
And for Little Teddy I used normal hook and tunesian hook. That what looks like double crochet is actually a stripe crocheted vertically with common tunesian stitch. I was just improvising...

Медвежонок связан простым и тунисским крючком. То, что выглядит столбиками с накидом, на самом деле полоски, связанные вертикально простым тунисским стежком.
This one is made of another yarn... I've lost the label, but there were about 70% acryl and 30% wool. Soft and fluffy. Simple chevron pattern, knits and purls.

Это уже другая пряжа. Ярлык потерян, но помню, что там было примерно 70% акрила и 30% шерсти. Мягкая и пушистая пряжа. Узор "шеврон" на лицевых и изнаночных петлях.
When she died in March, Jette Užāne received obituaries befitting a revered author or musician in Riga’s largest newspapers. Instead she was a severely handicapped farmwoman with no formal education. Several years ago, when I asked Latvian friends in Riga about their traditional folk mittens, they repeatedly said, “The best ones are made by Cimdu Jettiņa.” This is an affectionate name (using the diminutive form). “Little Jette of the mittens” might be a literal translation.
