I love mittens

 

I HATE the cold

 

Those two statements merged this winter. I have now knitted three pairs of mittens

 

Husband thinks I'm crazy, until my cold hands meet his bare skin and then he remembers why I need them

 

Last week, I finished the most divine pair of mittens as a test for Katja from Woolly World Knits

 

I splurged out and bought some beautiful Touch Yarn

 

My LYS had some, so I chose a skein of Merino Random 4ply

 

The mittens have turned out sooooo well that when my workmate asked me to take photos of her latest Finished Object, I HAD to get her to take pics of my mittens

 

Of course there are only so many angles one can get photos of mittens.... but I'm happy with the results

 

 

 

Of course there were a few photos that didn't make the Ravelry cut...

 

 

Then there was one were I got a bit over enthusiastic and got stuck in the rose bush

Thorns are NOT cool

 

This photo ended up being my favourite

 

Naturally I'm now making wrist warmers - for when I need to use my fingers :-)

 

Make sure you check out the photos of Leisl's lovely cardi too
