What did the UPS man bring me today? A box containing these:
Well that’s all and good, but wait til you see the COLORS:
Charcoal grey with white, and a Raspberry with White. I had to order online and didn’t really have a color card. I think they will make great looking mittens! Two of my winter-ish coats are red with black or red with white so these should go nicely. It’s gotten really cold here lately, so I really need to get cracking on these.
When I expressed concern that I’m not so good doing fair isle on DPNs, my friend Ingrid said "it gets easier with practice". Here’s hoping she’s right!

wow…wow…wow! Those are some sharp looking mittens!! You’ll do just fine on the dpns - dare I suggest doing a practice piece first?
