From the Designer Cori Eichelberger aka Irocknits: I grew up on Churchill Avenue in Sioux Falls, SD and it was widely known that at Christmas time you could drive around to various neighborhoods to see the immense decorations on Lollipop Lane, Santa Clause Curve, Reindeer Lane and the Churches on Churchill. In the early 1980s, my father organized a large group of neighborhood men to build replicas of a church he grew up near in Long Lake, South Dakota. 50 years later, on beautiful snowy nights in Sioux Falls people still pack up the car, make hot chocolate, dim their car lights, crack their windows, and drive very slowly up Churchill Avenue to see the spectacle and listen to the soft carols being played on a speaker in the snow (photo on last page).

The Must Stash yarn used represents snowy lanes and Christmas lights all in a row, a fond memory of my early years.

PATTERN NOTES:

This is a checklist pattern; each row is written out for ease of execution. However, this makes the pattern significantly longer – check to see the pages you want to print before starting. The mitten is worked in corrugated stockinette stitch which is NOT ribbing and has a bit of give but is tighter than traditional stockinette stitch due to the stranding of the yarn across the back of the work.
