October Update

Since I havent blogged in a while, I figured it was time to update my project list. Here are the most recent items I have completed, and are in the process of working on...

Lofty Wool Cable Mittens

The only thing about varigated yarn is you don't appreciate the cable work.. it gets hidden in the color.
Here's the link to the pattern:  Lofty-wool-cable-mittens

I used Vanna's Choice #4 yarn instead of a chunky yarn. I used the mens medium size and went down a needle size. Obviously, these mittens are BIG. I have big hands, so they fit me appropriately, but wouldnt for anyone with med, or small hands.

Codename Wintergreen

This is a pattern for fingerless gloves, that I decided to make into a fingerless mitt instead.

The color doesnt show, but it is a wonderful deep purple.  Yarn is Vanna's Choice, in purple.
Link to the pattern is here: Codename Wintergreen  I used #3 dpn's. Again my choice is a little big, but I love them regardless.

Vanilla Frappe Fingerless Gloves    (WIP)

A lovely lace fingerless glove. This pattern runs small, but is very stretchy. I am making these for my mother in law who fractured her wrist over the summer. I thought having something over it on the rainy days might help with the arthritis pain.

My yarn is by REYNOLDS REVUE. Its a beautiful creamy grey color, in 100% Wool Merino Extrafine Superwash yarn.

Here is the link to the pattern.  I LOVE THIS PATTERN!~
