Revived

Jul 22nd, 2008 by jennie

That long post about new things and what have I been working on? The oldest FO in the bunch.

Northern Lights Mittens, in progress since January of 2006 (thank you Ravelry!)

For some reason, during the hottest week of the summer, I decided it was a good idea to work on fair isle using an extremely sticky wooly wool. But for some reason, I’m loving it. Here’s to getting these done in time for this winter!

ETA: Ravelry LIED! It’s only been since January of 2007. I’m not sure how much better this is, since it’s still be almost two years, but still…

Just last night, I picked up a Vinterblomster mitten and knitted its thumb. One more thumb to go! But it makes sense to do this now — on the first cold day, you and I will be ready with our fabulous mitts!

They are beautiful. It’s a wonder you kept them unfinished for so long, but I guess the whole getting your PhD got in the way…

Every time I see those things I’m gobsmacked by how pretty they are. I really, really, really need to knit those.
