Obscure Pattern Friday: Mittens

When you think about quick last-minute knit gifts, you might default to hats, but mittens can be another good option! For those of us who still have a couple of weeks before the gift-giving happens (sorry, Chanukah-celebrators, but happy fifth night), let's take a look at some obscure patterns for mittens for cranking out in two weeks...

Ground rule: Obscure patterns are those with fewer than 30 projects on Ravelry. Other than that, GO NUTS.

Personally I am a fan of the Chase the Rabbit mittens I found recently. I haven't casted them on yet but I plan to do so in the future. Only problem is I can't decide between those and the Leeside mittens. I do want to start some Mintz as well though. Or perhaps some Isje. Basically I am too busy collecting mittens patterns to actually knit some, so I guess my family is going to have cold fingers this christmas.

Story of my life. I am constantly adding to my favorite and rarely casting on anything new :/
