i made a

pair of something!!!!!!!!!! yeah!!!!!!!!! and i even frogged the first mitt all the way back to the cuff and shortened the wrist by one repeat and moved the thumbs so that the lace would stay centered over the hand.


panda wool in lacquer red
us 1.5 needles (2.5mm)
gauge: 8.5 sts/inch
175 yds
(one skein was just enough for the mitts - except for the thumbs, sigh.
it was the original put-up so the newer skeins might be enough for the pair)

i made a bunch of modifications to the mitts and will be sharing them on my blog soon.

adrienne, looking around for her next project when she should just finish up the windowpanes.

ps. do you know how hard it is to photograph your own hand? it's about as hard as taking a pix of your feet without making your calf look ginormous!
