For those who wondered, I don't think Nicole reads the blog. Normally she doesn't but who knows when she might pop in looking for a recipe or something. It's ok if she sees it. It's what I'm working on so I'm sharing it here. The top of the picture, where you see the stitch markers, is really the bottom of the sweater since this one was done top down. Nicole had worked through that ribbing ...

Getting Things Done
The days are slipping away til I leave for MO. I'm so excited to be going. Bet you hadn't figured that out! :) But there's still so much to get done before I go. That's always the way it is. Maybe if I were more organized, it wouldn't be this way. I always think I can get more done than I can or, maybe it's that I need to do more. I really want to get Nicole's sweater finished and surprise ...
Third Pair of Mitts Started
Yesterday I finished the second pair of mitts and started the third pair. I decided to use the Passport Mitts pattern for the 2nd and 3d pairs to experiment a bit.

The second pair of Passport Mitts, I'm ...

One Mitt Done
These mitts also go quickly. These are the Passport Mitts. I don't even know what time I started these but before midnight, I had this one all done except for the thumb. It's way more blue than it looks in the picture. I love this pattern. Hopefully by the end of today, the second one will be finished, the thumb will be done on this one. I'll soak and block them and they'll be ready to ...
Mitts #2 Started
Pattern: Passport Mitts Yarn: Miss Babs' Yowza (This is actually one of the mini skeins from the Trio) Color: Rainforest This is a fun and easy pattern. I actually made these in 2016 and it took me less than two days, start to finish. It's funny that I so rarely make the same pattern twice . . well, I guess that's not true. But, what I was going to say before I contradicted ...
