The other day I showed you a picture of the three hats I'd finished knitting and now I've completed a pair of fingerless mittens and a cowl that will accompany one of the hats (the one pictured below).
All three pieces were done using Paton's Canadiana yarn. The mitts are 'Jeff's Mitts' from Lorraine Ehrlinger Designs and the pattern can be found HERE. The cowl is a simple pattern I came up with....just cast on 86 stitches and then work one row of K1, P1 followed by a row of K. Just keep repeating until it measures about 7". I think the pattern is actually called 'Broken Rib'.
This is a quote from Tom Bodett..."The difference between school and life? In school, you're taught a lesson and then given a test. In life, you're given a test that teaches you a lesson"
Great work, I'm sure they'll be appreciated once the cold weather kicks in.
ReplyDeleteWe still have heat and a wildfire going on not far away. We have ash raining down
And we can smell smoke, but soon the rains will come!
I like the prairie point pumpkin, cute idea.
Thanks, have a good day.
Love the leaves...that would be beautiful on a wall. The pearl embroidery looks very simple. I must try that. I love the pumpkin!
