Posted by limedragon | Filed under accessories, knitting
I have been quite scatterbrained lately. I handed in a recent design project last Friday and now have more time to catch up on this blog. However, I completely forgot to take additional photos of the below FO before mailing it, so you’ll have to do with incomplete shots.
Gift #1

Late last year, I asked a big favor from three very busy people: letters of recommendation. I could have sent thank you notes, but decided I would make each person a handknit gift. Here’s the first one!

This past weekend, I was in need of a simiple project to work on during the Bohus events. I thought garter stitch mitts would be perfect.

(Note 1: Sorry about the spot of technical difficulties; after I first published this post, it unpublished itself somehow, and when I went back to reset the status, half the information was gone, so I had to reconstruct it.
