Whenever it snows I remember mittens from Grandma Scott ( I still have a pair of green ones) and the mitten clips. Ours usually arrived connected by a long piece of yarn. When the yarn broke It Was replaced by the mitten clips. OH! I got this pictured from the Internet.
I think this idea has been replaced now with just the clips that attach to the coat sleeves. The old idea was dangerous - strangle capabilities or something. How did we EVER get to be this old with all the hazards? And yet, we didn't lose our mittens.
ReplyDeleteSuzie, I had a hard time finding a picture of the long elastic clips. Remember being pulled behind a car in the snouu on a sled. Today CPS uuould be at the door.
