Progress! Just a few more inches and I can start binding off for the shoulders. Then on to sleeve island 🙂

Mitten Monday
Slightly fancier mittens this week – making good progress on Mom’s Christmas mittens! I’m a couple rows away from starting to decrease for the top! They are going pretty well – it’s a pretty pattern, though it does require paying attention pretty closely 🙂 Do you have a favorite style of mitten or glove to… Continue reading Mitten Monday
Mitten Monday
DH’s office in our downstairs gets pretty cold in the mornings and evenings. When this happens, he comes upstairs and puts his cold hands on my neck or arm. After a month of this, I decided he needs some fingerless mitts. These were very quick to make – I started them last Thursday or Friday.… Continue reading Mitten Monday

I have two projects going right now, my Powdermill cardigan and my Mom’s mittens. Alissa of Snakes & Cranes and I started Powdermill on January 1st of this year as a KAL.

New knitted curtains. Solved: keep out the cold better, not see-through at night. Sounds good, right? Problems – not quite wide enough. Substantially too long. Actually, they were… Continue reading Eh

Still just plugging away at the same two projects, but making progress! I’m about halfway done with the second curtain, and ready to be all the way done 🙂 Hopefully this week. The first Mom mitten is underway, but these will certainly not be finished by this weekend. So I will have to either be… Continue reading Wednesday WIPs
Thursday ThWIPs
Same two projects as last week, but a bit more progress 🙂 The first door curtain is done, and I’ve got a little start on the second one. I was debating free-forming the “pattern” on the second one, but decided to try to make it more or less match the first one. So #1 won’t… Continue reading Thursday ThWIPs

With my Halloween Cats sweater done, I’m focusing on two smaller projects before jumping back to a bigger one. The first is a pair of Latvian mittens for my Mom for Christmas. I really only have the cast one and a little bit of the cuff done. So a bit more to do on these… Continue reading Thursday ThWIPs
