In which I explain. A little.

I have two wee pieces of news.

Piece the first: I am working on a semi-secret project (the recipient reads this blog sometimes), and there is a small amount of info on Ravelry if you're desperate (sorry to non-Ravelers).

Piece the second: I've worked out the numbers for an EZ raglan sweater that I am about to star knitting right now! So I should have some blog material soon.

Take care everyone.

In which neon takes over

At the behest of my co-habitants, I whipped up a tea cozy the other night.
I think it's ridiculous and kind of retro-hideous, but everyone else loves it!

In which 'gloves will keep us together' *sung*

Let's see. I've been out of blogging commission for almost a month now, oops!

Pattern: Endpaper Mitts, size small
Yarn: Harrisville Designs New England Shetland. Don't remember the colours, Maybe russet and gold? Well under one skein of each.
Needles: 2.25 and 2.75mm DPNS
Start: February 2, 2009
End: April 1, 2009
For: Old Man
Modifications: None!
Verdict: Totally easy to knit, the second one took about a day and a half! The yarn is wonderful and bloomed nicely after washing and did soften a good degree. All around a winner, the recipient loves them, too!

It's hard to beat a nice nap in the sun.
