Warm Hands Progress
I've been knitting most of the weekend since we have our yard work up to date, no plans plus it's cold and damp outside. Watching Ultimate Fighter 2 marathon yesterday helped my progress tremendously. I officially have 4 projects on the needles. I like it that way, I can rotate projects without becoming too bored. I've also been reading Bee Season because book club meets Wednesday.
OK, back to mittens. This first one will be a felted mitten ~it's huge right now. I put a quarter there for reference. See those wonky stitches just above the cuff? That is where I ended last winter before I stuffed the mitten into a bag for a year. I didn't really notice the stitches until I was a little ways into the mitten and was unwilling to tink. Plus I figured it will be felted so the wonkiness may disappear. If not it will be a nice reminder to get my act together.
And my Hermione mitten, just a start.

Felting hides a world of sins, thank G-d! I can't wait to see your Hermione Mittens, I am just about to cast them on in purple.
Lovely! And thanks for sharing the source pattern!
