finally finished

 I managed to knuckle down and finish the sampler ! That's one off the finishing pile.


I also cast on a mitten with the black and white yarn, not quite got the sizing right but I will add a few more row of random checks to lengthen the hand parts. My yarn has proved to be too thin but since these are to replace my house mittens I'm not too disappointed plus will design my own next time. This was a useful lesson on how to design the thumb with a pattern on it.


you can see my tension issues with the yarn. Pattern by Traci Scott

  1. Congrats on the finish! It's lovely stitching. The mitten is very pretty. I just noticed a big hole in my favorite pair so I'm thinking I may need to start a new pair myself. I do like my thrummed mittens but it doesn't seem to be cold enough around here for them anymore. I don't think I even unpacked them last year.
