Mitten Day
December 24 · Level 1 · #2159 of 2238
Mitten Day is a cosy winter celebration of the snuggest item of the cold season. It stands for care, handmade things and the simple pleasure of warming someone's hands.
How it is celebrated: people knit mittens, join workshops and hold contests for the most eye-catching pair. Many also collect warm clothes for those who need them and give handmade mittens to friends and family.
In a mitten the fingers sit together and warm each other, which is why a mitten is usually warmer than a glove.
