Mitten Obsessions
By now you probably have figure out that Ravelry is the coolest thing right now. Although I don't post a lot of comments to blogs or forums, I have been looking and getting a lot of ideas on what to do with my stash.
First with all the cold weather I became obsessed with mittens, lots and lots of mittens; but there was a problem, I had no idea how to knit with 2 colors at once or fair isle or stranded knitting, whatever you call it I knew I had to learn and fast! I googled and watched a couple of videos and the one that helped me the most was the one at Philosopher's Wool site, it's pretty basic but clear,(beware for some odd reason it does not play on firefox).
So I've learned and practiced, I made The Center Square hat from Knitty
and now I'm knitting this.
Here is the first one. Maybe there is hope after all.
