{WIP}Nothing? Nothing? Tra la la


For a worsted weight project...I'm certainly taking my time with these mitts! I am almost done with the second one.  Like annoyingly almost done...maybe 10 rounds? And then the thumb.

As these are part of the Gratitude KAL, I try to knit when I'm in a positive mood and try to infuse each knit and purl with thankfulness and love. 


The cables on these remind me of a labyrinth. Which of course reminds me of the babe. What babe? The babe with the power. What power? The power of voodoo. Who do? You do. Do what? Remind me of the babe.

  2. I had the same problem when I made these (that and I had to sit and write out the full pattern repeat). It took me forever to make the first one and the second one took almost no time at all. It was silly.

    1. I definitely missed one row during the cable pattern on the first glove that I didn't realize until the second one. And for the mirrored cables...yikes. I can't wait to finish them and wear them in my meat locker of an office.

    1. Hello name sharer :) Cables look a lot harder than they actually are...give it a try :) With big yarn and big needles you will be surprised at how quickly these go.
