Another pair of mitts - and these might be my fave of the bunch. Maya, my little hand model, agreed. She's already put her order in for a couple of her own.

They're Axel Mitts by Blue Garter, and I used two skeins of Elann Peruvian Highland Wool from my stash to make 'em. You might recognize this from Maya's all time favorite hat. Working with a bulky gauge was awesome. I cast on late in the morning and was done with both mitts after a karate class and some evening TV.


Aren't they cool? I love the 2x2 rib on the hand, 1x1 rib on the thumb.


Anyways, off to work on my next design for fall. This time I'm going to be ahead of the curve.
