Knitting Notes

Black Rose Mitts

My coworker C got her care package, and mentioned that her daughter is coveting her fingerless gloves, because they’re apparently all the rage with the kids these days. (It amuses me greatly that I’m in absolutely no position to be able to figure out what’s all the rage with the kids anymore…) So, I volunteered to make E a pair as well.

I’ve cast on some Blackrose Mitts, using my Pagewood Farms Alyeska yarn, in the Santa Fe colorway. The yarn has cashmere in it, and it’s so incredibly soft. I would totally buy it again.

I’m actually quite a bit further along than the photo above (I’m done with one, about about two thirds done with the other), but we’ve had shite lighting all week, so I haven’t redone any pictures.
