I’ve finally finished one of my knitting projects! it seems like it has taken me forever and a day, but the handwarmers I wanted to give mitchco for Christmas are finally completed! Actually, I finished them and mailed them off about a few weeks ago. But I hear they were well-received!
Instead of the stripes called for in the pattern, I decided to make these babies solid yellow, with a sporty red stripe across the back of the hand. I also made them extra-long in both directions for increased warmth. The first pair of these that I made came out nicely, but I would have liked them to cover a bit more of my fingers.
I haven’t actually gotten that much better at making the thumbs, but I have gotten better at knowing which stitches to pull together to get the holes to close up.
