Oh mittens!

I'm loving these today! My take on EZ's mitered mittens with an after-thought thumb. I used Bodega Pastures, a lovely thick worsted local yarn.
Hope you are staying warm too...

First sweater of the year

I'm making this up as I go!  I got gauge, and started knitting with some beautiful grey Cascade Rustic that I found on sale.  I love this yarn because its a singles of wool blended with 25% linen.  The drape is going to be fantastic.  I hope I have enough yarn to make this a tunic.  As you can sort of see I did a provisional cast on before working up to the armholes, raglan yoke, and neck.  With that done, I can now work the body and sleeves to the length I want or until I run out of yarn...whichever comes first.
Happy New Year Everyone!
