I 'm Samantha :)
I'm a 24 year old stay at home mom with two VERY energetic little boys. My oldest goes to school and my husband works during the day so when it's just me and my little one we settle down for some fun crafts and a little bit of Paw Patrol on his part,with lots of potty and snack breaks through out the day.
I've honestly never written down my own crochet pattern before and I always kept making up excuses not to write down any of my patterns. Like "Oh I don't have the time I'm potty training the little man" or other easy little excuses but I finally decided to stop thinking about it and just do it. So with the help of my awesome friend Gloria I figured out what a blog was :)
Free patterns really helped me out when I first picked up my crochet hooks again after 10+ years so that's exactly what I want to start out doing. Hopefully this will help out anyone needing a quick and easy mitten pattern.
On a quick note I am the only one who has ever tried out this pattern so if you notice anything off about it please let me know so I can fix it :)
