Baby...it's cold out there!!!!

We had several inches of snow fall most of yesterday and last night and the weatherman says we can expect temperatures only in the teens all this week. So glad that I got my fingerless gloves done last night. I will most likely be using them this week. This was a super simple pattern that I got from my friend, Sharon.

If you are interested in the pattern, it was #7 needles, cast on 38 stitches, K2, P2 in row 1 and P2, K2 in row 2 and continue for 7". Cast off and then stitch together top 1" and bottom 3" and that's it. I think I will try something a little more difficult next time (did I say next time?... good thing I don't have any yarn for "next time" right now); but for now I need to finish my felted purse and get busy on those darn socks.

Well if you live anywhere in the Michigan area....keep warm this week.

    I love these fingerless mittens - made a pair before Christmas and was thrilled with the way they turned out. I used this pattern:

    Don't you just love an immediate gratification project?
    Check out Knitty and Ravelry and Purl for some new ideas. You'll stay busy all winter.
    Nice job, btw.

    My excuse for not posting for so long is "life".  Lots of things going on, but no one big thing to post about. Took a quick round ...
