Holy Crap dot com!
My Camera SHIT THE BED!
yes.
I borrowed my Dad's camera and took a lot of pictures. I will have blog fodder for the next couple of days.
I finished my Mosaic Mitts! (a while ago....)
I really like how these came out.
Specs:
Pattern from Interweave Knits Holiday 2006 - Mosaic Mitts
Yarn: Vanna's Choice - Lion Brand 100% Acrylic
Needles: US 4 DPN's
I think I would make these a little shorter than the pattern called for. They end almost to the end of my middle finger. I would make the thumb shorter too. But these will make a good Christmas gift. I know someone with long hands....
Here is another nice shot
I think a good blocking is in order though...
Next up: I have a total stinker of a mitten! I HATE IT! And I can't wait to share.

Those are so cute! And maybe you could ask for a new camera for Christmas. . . ?

These are so cute! I wish I could put colors together like that...I'm stealing your color pallete and making some of my own!

Can't remember if I told you but IK is mailing me a copy of the pattern for $4. Yeehaw! Your mitts look great but I already told you that on Ravelry.

My first thought...How do get that out of the sheets?
Nice mitts!

Very nice. Funny what a blogger will do to get those pics for the next blog update.
You did a great job!

I just wasted a whole day camera shopping online, just to end up getting the one I originally thought I was going to get. Oy!
They (the mittens) came out so cute.

I love the way you phrase things. Can I steal "shit the bed" for when something in my life breaks?
Nice mitts!

You're a knitting fool!
Hey, I made a rhyme ::laughing::
