Made some extra $

A few years ago I made mittens as a fundraiser for our Tour de Cure, American Diabetes Association bike ride and I had a lady call me yesterday looking for 2 more pair. So I still had some supplies left (surprise, surprise) and I was able to fill her order and made $50. These are the wool sweater mittens that are lined with polar fleece. Nice and warm!

Extra dollars are always good. Is there a pattern for these available? I have scraps of fleece for linings and they sound like neat presents for next Christmas.
