I had planned to have both finished by this time, but it’s been a weird week. And I’ve been especially grumpy. It happens. I haven’t even spent much time on the computer and really have things that I need to do.
After I took these pictures, I realized that you can’t see the designs up the sides. These mittens are so beautiful that I may actually wear them. After all, I am a glove person. I learned some new techniques and I hope to make another pair using my own design. I was looking at Beth’s patterns today and I found something I think my daughter would like. The only things is I don’t have the right yarn. I found something I could use at Knit Picks so I ordered two books too. They are having a 40% off books sale, but they didn’t have everything I wanted.

I am grumpy this week as well. I wrecked my back and my house is a mess because of it. I am sitting here with an ice pack on it hoping it will loosen up so I can get the dishes done. Grrrrrrr!
I got the little socks in the mail yesterday and that really cheered me up. They are adorable. There is a shower tomorrow for Abigail. I will bring them and take pictures then post them. Melissa is going to love them! Thank you ever so much. I really am motivated in learning how to knit socks now. You cannot buy anything so wonderful in the store.
