Dating from the early 1900's, here is a little hand knitted wool mitten made for a doll.  Alas, the mate has become a wayward soul, still trying to be found but to no avail.  Even though there is one, what a charmer!! 

Made of a blue - gray, gold and red yarn, it certainly gives the allure of truly Americana.  What a finding to decorate a small twig or feather tree at Christmas time or perhaps you may have another inspiration. 

The mitten is 1-1/2" long from top to bottom and 1-3/8" across the width of the palm.

Although one small hole at the thumb / finger area and a bit of soil, it is still a treasure to hold dear. Perhaps it has a story to tell......
