Time to make the doughnuts….
Gosh this fall is flying fast. I’m going to make this post short and sweet. Firstly, another free pattern. I hope you enjoy it. A simple and classic mitten made with worsted weight wool. Get your Houndstooth Check Mittens here: houndstooth mitts
You can download it here, from my Boxnet widget, or over on Ravelry. Search for me and my designs “hotcheese” or try searching “Houndstooth Check Mittens”.
Secondly: doughnuts. Oh yes I did. A Martha recipe for Pumpkin Cornmeal doughnuts. I dusted some with cinnamon sugar and for some I whipped up a glaze comprised of maple syrup, icing sugar and a dash of milk. YUM!
It’s probably a good thing I’ve only used my deep fryer 5 times in 5 years…but it is fun to have when you want something decadent.

Great mitten pattern! Thanks for sharing!
Mmmm donuts. Making this preggo hungry!
Thank you! The doughnuts were a hit, but the house smelled greasy for 24 hours after. Now I remember why I only use the deep fryer once a year or so. How’s the belly?

Yum, Sarah! and have added the pattern to my book.
