Free Pattern - Wide Rib Mittens


The beginning of many holiday gifting projects, I'm not waiting until December 20th to start knitting gifts this year. The back of the hand is three wide ribs, the palm is straight knitting.

Little Twist Fingerless Mittens Pattern



 Little Twist Fingerless Mittens
By Naomi Furtado


The pattern for these mittens can be found at: Ravelry





So much coral wool yarn.

Instead of another cowl, I'm starting on some fingerless mittens.



Usually I get bored after the first one, but I think I've been pretty good lately about following through to finish projects, and mittens are pretty quick. I'm using the pretty coral color that the last cowl pattern I posted was, it was on clearance and i got a LOT.  I also made my cousin's daughter a sweater from it, I just need to tie in the ends of it (which I hate doing), and block it.



There's also a lot in my stash that I don't want (lots of acrylic stuff that I don't plan on using, mostly), does anyone know what to do with this? PIF on Etsy maybe? (UPDATE: Starting to PIF everything I don't want... take it!!)

Here's a picture of the felt fruit I started the other day:

It's a good start, I think, but I was working with black thread in the sewing machine, and running low on felt.  I think next week I'll make some finished products and post them.  Banana, apple, and bread. I'm not sure about the bread, that needs some work I think.  I made some play money, also, and will post that too.  I always forget how instant gratification the sewing machine can be, it was so quick to make things after I had templates cut out. What other suggestions do you have for felt projects?
