I was given some oven mits which had a 6 inch wide peice of material between them. they were supposed to cary casserole dishes.

I have oven mitts of various lengths. I may have bought them joined; but I don't leave them joined. I have one on each hand, sometimes, giving me full range of motion with both arms. I have never heard of them being used in a joined position. but this may just be my inexperience.
