Mum

I’m a little behind on downloading photos from NYC and Thanksgiving, but do you know what happens when I get a few days off from work?! See above! I got the first of 3 christmas hats done. This one is for my Mom. I can’t wait to see the 3 of us decked out in our knitting best. I also started on these great mittens. I posted a bit ago that I was on the look out for a mitten pattern. Well, just a few days later I got a email newsletter from The Stitch House advertising a mitten contest that they were sponsoring. Basically, buy the yarn at their store, knit up the famous Bella Mittens, and then display them in the store for a bit to get a fun prize. BINGO! I started on the pattern last night and it knits up ffffaaasssttt. I’m almost to the top of the mitten. I have the feeling I will be done with these by the end of the weekend. I love the color and the length. Very Erin-esque. Next project? Dad’s hat!
