Finished mitts!

Hello all, you have been making some amazing mitts! I'm so excited to be here! Mitts make my life bearable. My hands area almost always cold, so I can never have too many pairs of mitts.

Here are a few I've been cranking out this fall...

Rannoch: FO

First up, we have Rannoch, designed by Corinne of Knit 1, Purl 2, Stab. Loved this pattern. I made 2 fewer repeats and ditched the thumb, but that was due to my lack of skill and time (this was a gift for an admin). I made mine with WoolEase in Cranberry on 12" circular addi turbo size 8. These are definitely on my short list for me to make for myself in the new year.

Next, we have Fetching, from knitty. I skipped the picot bind-off and the thumb. Lovely knit as well. If I make these again, I think I'll make them longer and maybe with fewer stitches so they cling more to my arm. These were also a gift, and well received.

Thanks for hosting this KAL! I've really enjoyed adding all these mitt patterns to my queue :) Happy Holidays!

Rannoch Pattern

For those who were interested, I've posted the pattern for my Rannoch gloves, even though I haven't completed the mate yet. It can be found here. Let me know if you find any errors, and I hope you enjoy!

I call it Rannoch


This is a pattern I made myself, simple though it is. I've only finished one, but I'm immensely proud of it (it's the first thing I've designed myself knitwise). I'm blogging it now because I don't know if I'll have it's mate finished and/or have computer access before the end of November. I doubt anyone wants it, but let me know if you would like a pattern, you can find more about it on my blog.

P.S. It's Caron Simply Soft in Deep Plum Heather, on 7's if anyone wishes to know. Happy knitting!
