Notes

13.10.2015

Will try to catch up the MKAL in the fingerless glove fanatic group.

Clue 1 completed

18.10.2015

After the half of clue 2 I recognized two mistakes and had to frog clue 2.
In the thumb I knit 1 row and missed to slip the stitches of the row before. First I thought that could be easily fixed after finishing the mitt but then I saw that the numbers of slipped stitches after the thumb wasn’t correct as well. I wasn’t able to see in which row I’ve made this mistake so I frogged the complete 2nd clue.

Finished! I’ve needed a bit longer as there were a lot of other things to do during the last weeks. But I’m more than happy with the result and it was a pleasure to knit.
Now there’s only one problem: November is very warm this year. It’s more like spring with temperatures above 15°C. No mitt weather yet but that will change for sure.

3rd mitt for the 15 Point Club
#4 Mosaic
Wildcard: technique never used in a pair of FGs (Mosaic)
Wildcard: using DPNs
