I was wrong

I was sure the snow would all be melted by the time I finished knitting these mittens.

I was wrong.

We had three more inches of snow today.  It is currently 12˚ with a windchill of -2˚.  

Wednesday is the first day of spring.

One year ago it was in the 70s.

I think I finished these just in time.

A lining? No time at all...

Line those mittens.

Won't take too long, right?  No color knitting to slow me down?

The alpaca is soft (so soft!) and fine.  

This lining already seems to go on forever.

Thumbs!

Thumbs!

In search of thumbs

These need thumbs.

And a lining...

I have roughly one million mitten patterns in my Ravelry queue, but I did manage to narrow it down to one.

Of course, you know all the snow is going to melt this weekend.
