Whew! Three hours of shooting, uploading, labeling and cataloging into Ravelry and on Flickr and I have made a dent in the photo documentation backlog that looms over me forever and a day.
The project I am most excited about these days is this little number, these fingerless mitts. I got totally inspired and a bit envious when the Rooster made her fingerless mitts with her Five Plum Pie yarn. I may have drooled over my laptop upon seeing them all done up. And so I took to my needles and decided the Enchanted 3 ply yarn from SCF was the perfect tonic to ease my serious case of WANT.
Two evenings of knitterly focus and I have something I think I can wear proudly at Rhinebeck this year. I adapted the Toast pattern by Leslie to add a gusset thumb because I like the fit better. And instead of a curled edge, I added a few rows of garter. All in all, a WIN project.

Gorgeous mitts!
Such a satisfying knit for sure, these are the perfect fingerless mitts!
So pretty! I'm jealous of all of this handspun goodness going on. Those are going to be perfect for fall.
These are fantastic!
oh, these look great! And funnily, they look A LOT like some mitts that I made for myself last year with some handspun! I even did a double take, wondering if you had my mitts for some reason! ha!
These are gorgeous! I love those colors. I may need to put some of my handspun stash to use and make these too.
