Double oven gloves

edit

What's the difference with "double oven gloves"? Are these separate gloves or double thickness? 144.32.126.12 (talk) 15:51, 28 October 2008 (UTC)Reply

Oven gloveOven mitt — Is "oven glove" really the more common of the terms? I'm from Minnesota and the only term I have ever heard used is oven mitt. Stonemason89 (talk) 04:44, 29 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

Earl Mitt?

Is there any evidence anywhere to support this claim? That the glove was created by a baker called Mitt? I don't believe it and can't find any references to support it - nothing reliable anyway. 🍺 Antiqueight confer 00:12, 9 December 2014 (UTC)Reply

I've removed it. I can't find much about it, except for various obscure sites with copies of this article. There's also a few sites with reworded sentences, but they were published later than the addition of the text. I cannot find anything that dates from before May 2013 on this. It just sounds like a hoax and the IP who did the edit was never seen again. Isa (talk) 22:08, 1 October 2015 (UTC)Reply

Should be merged to pot holder.E.M.Gregory (talk) 10:50, 15 May 2017 (UTC)Reply

I would say Pot Holder is a very american term and the two bring very different items to mind for me. I tend to think of a pot holder as a bendable trivet rather than a glove or mitt. ☕ Antiqueight haver 14:46, 15 May 2017 (UTC)Reply
