Notes

I am still not sure how I feel about the color of this yarn. I do love the feel of it though.

The color is growing on me. But, OMG!!! This yarn is so very, very soft. I love them.

When I was finishing the cuff on the first mitt, I read the part that stated I should have repeated the turn part. I don’t know what I was thinking, but, I did the decrease round instead. So, the knuckle part of these gloves don’t look like the pattern, but, the do fit well at the knuckle.

When I do these again, I will have to do the thumb different. By only casting on one stitch to close the thumb, there are too many holes left in the end.

These are for my Handspun Swap Part Deux partner, goldiemom.
