It already feels like fall, and when that happens you get excited about crochet season! Something new for me to try, baby mittens. This calls for another challenge, using baby yarn.  I purchased some fine yarn from Turkey a while back that's a blend of 30% wool and 70% acrylic and wavy stranded (brown & green ones).   It is so soft and easy to crochet.  I also used Caron Simply Soft Light for a thicker affect (pink one).  So far I found that using single crochet stitches works up easy and fast with finer yarns, especially if you use a hook that is about one half size smaller than the yarn requires (this is just my opinion for this particular project). Instead of 3.0mm I used 2.5mm hook on the green & brown mitts.
