Hi,
Here's my first creation, a pair of Insulated Mitten :
I use Climashield Apex 2.5oz & Momentum M90R from Thru-hiker. I'll use them to improve my winter sleeping system.
I made them thanks to Lance Marshall's pattern.
You'll find some more pictures on my website :

Oh how I wish I had the skills you MYOG hikers have. Your stichig looks clean and straight. Congratulations.
Very nice!
I just finished making my own pair of insulated mittens! I used:
2.5 oz climashield
1.1 oz uncoated ripstop for inner shell and back-of-hand's outer shell (green fabric)
Heavier (more durable) ripstop from JoAnns for the palm's outer shell (gray fabric)
Finished, the pair came out to 1.55 oz. I used the size "Large" mitten pattern and they fit well over my hands wearing a light pair of size medium gloves; I did cut 2 inches off the length of the pattern. Before I sewed it in, the Climashield for both mittens weighed a total of 0.7oz, so you could double the insulation for very little weight gain.
Thanks for posting how to make these!

DS2 Meridian: Vintage Dive Style, Everyday ReliabilityInspired by the streamlined "skin diver" watches of the 1960s, the DS2 Meridian combines vintage proportions with the durability of a modern everyday tool watch. A reliable Japanese Miyota quartz movement delivers set-it-and-forget-it accuracy, while 150 meters of water resistance, a locking screwdown crown, sapphire crystal, and strong Super-LumiNova make it ocean-ready. Available in multiple case sizes and starting under $250, it's an approachable way to get classic dive-watch styling without sacrificing everyday practicality.
