Mittens #11 in 2013

Soccer games that are an hour and a half from home offer plenty of simple knitting time in the car.  I actually got these finished.


Knitting these mittens reminded me that with my handspun, when I think I made a worsted weight, it's really a bulky yarn.   These are only 37 stitches around.

This is a great pattern for handspun, as you knit from the tip of the mitten and get a personalized fit.  Sizing on the fly, regardless of yarn weight.

Summer soccer?

55 degrees and a light mist. 

I'm wearing fingerless mitts and my down puffy. 
What perfect June weather for GotH's soccer game!???


Although the new mittens almost match my puffy!
