Mosaic Knitting...

Yesterday decided to knit up a pair of mitts using some extra Rowan Finest yarn I had...love this yarn for warmth and softness. Wanted to try doing up a pair of mosaic brick patter...very simple for a first effort....loved the results...no strands of yarn getting tangled up and not more floats to contend with. I hate putting on a pair of mitts or socks with floats that could get pulled easily. These worked out so well....I will do up another project with another simple pattern and see how that goes. 

Cuffed Mitts

The Cuffed Cable Twist Mitts

And today posted a pair of the Cable Cuffed Mitts...this time in a beautiful Sapphire Blue. Really a wonderful pattern that seems to be very popular. I sometimes think that I could knit these alot more as they don't take that much time. I am currently doing a pair of yellow mitts. Got to get more in the Etsy shop so that I'll have alot for the winter months. Wow, do I hate the summers we have in the north east. Wish the summers were longer.

Fingerless Mitts and Happy New Year!

Happy New Year!! I finally decided that I should knit another pair of these mitts. I really love them as they are knitted on fingerling weight yarn and on #2 needles. Very warm and I think it is because of the tight knit...versus bulky. Clearly have to try these on the recycled cashmere I just got from a woman on Etsy. I have posted these on Etsy and think I will do another soon. They knit fast but before I do another pair I want to knit a pair of red scrunch socks with a heart on the heels for Valentines. Busy knitting but then it is part of my resolution of knitting more pairs of socks this year than I did last year! 

We will see how that goes.....Happy New Year!

Cuffed Twisted Cable Fingerless Mitts

Yesterday I worked on the pattern for the Cuffed Fingerless Mitts that I have knitted alot. I have sold a few pairs and think I know the pattern by heart. I posted the pattern on Ravelry and sold 3 patterns and alot of queries. I just hope that what I wrote down was correct. I did knit up a pair using the pattern I wrote and it seemed to be clear. Hope I don't get any complaints...hate that.
