High Hopes

I finished a pair of mittens last night.
They are a horrible mess.

I used gorgeous, expensive variegated pink, white and brown/green yarn. (Lynn, I still don't see the green)

It pooled and did such weird things.

I tried a kitchener weave for the finger tips.

Looks bad.

The thumbs are wonkey. The fit is uncomfortable.

I am so disappointed.

This yarn should have stayed in a ball...where it belonged.

It seems I have been knitting mittens too long for this to happen.

Better get myself to the local knitting store and try again.
I will use my old methods and some plain, old, soft yarn.
I need a little knitting success!





Oh, by the way, Emma said she would wear them.
She likes the color and can overlook the many imperfections.

Go Figure.


Gotta run.

See ya around the comments :o)

Encourage one another,
