Smitten with my mittens...

I'm done with the second pair of the commissioned socks! Yeah! I'll deliver them this Thursday evening and that will feel good.



I also want to share with you the fingerless mittens that my friend, Marie, at ZQuilts sent to me. About a month ago. I am terribly remiss for not getting this posted earlier, but I've been trying to get a good photo of them - while they are on my hands. Not an easy task, especially without a tripod. I finally talked DH into taking a shot and although I wish it were better, it does show you just how lovely the mittens are. A gorgeous color and extremely soft. I absolutely love them!


I sent her some hand-dyed fabric as my way of saying "thank you," but I'm sure I got the better of the deal.

  3. Love the socks! The colors are great! I love the pattern on the cuff. Very nice.

    And the mitts are wonderful also. I just love the fingerless ones. So versatile. One day I will attempt cables. :)

    Have a great day!
