Remeber those shepherds in the field abiding? They were dressed sensibly for the occasion - with mittens. We have visual proof!

The full frontal. ;) This altarpainting is from Nes Stavechurch in Sogn, Western Norway. From around 1315.

The sensible shepherds - dressed for a cold night, complete with mittens. I kind of love the mitten detail.
