In the Hoop Fox Mittens

Make scratch mittens for baby in the hoop! After much testing and thought, we have developed this design. Our fox mittens are fully lined, have both an elastic casing AND velcro closure to keep the mittens secure and comfy on baby. They come in four sizes and are made in EVERY hoop size! Eyelashes stitch separate to allow a boy version. Skip the Flower parts to make boy version

4x4 makes newborn and preemie size

(please note that due to the size of the 4x4 hoop, these versions of the mittens are lined but there is an extra step on the sewing machine.)

5x7 makes newborn and preemie completely lined in the hoop AND makes 3-6 month and young child size lined but there is an extra step on the sewing machine for these two sizes

6x10 makes newborn, preemie and 3-6 month completely lined in the hoop.

8x12 makes the young child size completely lined in the hoop.

Most users will be using the 5x7 size for preemie and newborn.
