Yesterday I wrote about the practice of sewing your mittens onto elastic as a child in order to prevent you losing them.  My Mum certainly did this for me and my sister, but what about you.  Did you have your mittens kept safe by having them constantly dangling from your coat sleeves, or did you risk losing them at every opportunity?
Did you used to have your gloves or mittens on elastic?
