Default Fur Mitts -Done

After a little cursing, and a lot of learning they are finally done. I have a few finishing touches to do, but I used them today and they work great. Hope you like them.

Always nice to see someone handcraft an item. They'll be warm. They are a fair size, how many coyotes…10? lol

Great job they will be warm ! I just made a pair from a wolf and it is a big job but very rewarding in the end.

Did you tan the the hide yourself or send it out? It's tough sewing fur and leather you have my admiration.

nicely done. Now you will need to make the mukluks, leggings, coat and hat to go with the gauntlets.
