AND following a pattern to make!
Handwarmers- or fingerless mittens!
I made the hat a couple of years ago.
The scarf I knitted up whilst watching Lord of the Rings.
And the fingerless mitts ? Allison of Yellowbird Yarn Room- –
my knitting coach and friend shared a copy of a pattern she
was making.
So – I now have a whole winter knitted set!
And it is so warm and “toasty” *!
*- toasty is the name of the pattern for the mittens!
What are you making ?
Wow! That looks neat! Still working on My pair of fingerless mittens. One of these days I’ll get mine done.
Hey, it was a topsy-turvy day! I blogged about chocolate and you about knitting! And is that a thumb I see in those mitts? Nice job!
And Cynthia – I have no doubt that if they were crochet you’d have whipped them out long before any of us could figure out what we were doing!
Yes- that is a portion of a thumb.
Now I’m working on a set of leg warmers for my husband. He turns the heat up high because his legs are cold- and I’m tired of roasting! So hopefully these will meet both of our needs.
I wear a cheap little Target glove with the fingertips cut out when I work to keep the oils from my hand from getting on the paper. Your fingerless gloves are MUCH better looking!
I’m considering trying to make a hat for winter, I’m not sure if it’s beyond me though.
Fingerless gloves…very handy!
Kim- these are very easy to make. Do you knit?
Brydie-They are very handy. And the hat wasn’t hard to make. I made it before I could handle following even the simplest pattern. Although it is probably too hot to think about knitting in Sydney right now
Fingerless gloves are great for dogwalking amongst other things, and yours look just lovely Heidi 🙂
You look as snug as a bug in a rug! 🙂 Love your work, but love the smiling photos even more! 🙂
Jo, Celia, Thanks for your kind words.
I already lost one of my gloves!
(Although I think it is in Cynthia’s car, somewhere on the floor.:(! )
