Mitten right along


These mittens were a joy to knit. I want to make more. Anyone want some?

Here is what they look like modeled by Alex (who says "No one wears these, Mom!" Like I'm going to embarass him).












Here is what they look like without a model.
















Next up is the Socks that Rock (shown wound).

I think I will try the Lucy colorway done toe up. I'm going to use a few tutorials I have seen on the web. This will be in honor of the end of Socktoberfest.

I need to start thinking about Christmas presents. Any requests?

I love those mitten thingys! I teach music, and lots of my students prefer open fingered mittens. Also, the boys prefer them when they're playing catch at recess.

Those mittens are lovely - what pattern did you use?

Kath-
I used the pattern "Cornflower Mitts" from Interweave Knits Holiday Gifts issue that just came out. I made them a little longer (added one repeat)and I really like them! Thanks for the compliment!
