I've had a hard time finding time to knit, since any time I'm not nursing I'm sewing! But I recently discovered that nursing and knitting are not mutually exclusive, so I finally finished these mitts!
My hands get cold easily, so even though it doesn't get all that cold in Texas, I wear gloves a lot. But it's really hard to use a touch screen with traditional gloves. I've missed a few calls, so I decided I needed some of these. I decided to knit long ones so that they'll cover my arms when I wear my
Simplicity 2808 jacket, which I do all the time. The cable makes me happy. It's beautiful and was really fun to knit. Rav notes are
here.
I've got a few irons in the fire right now sewing-wise. I'm doing a few things for a pair of weddings - making a bolero for a bride and adding sleeves to a bridesmaid dress, so that's been keeping me pretty busy. I'll share the bolero muslins with you when I get to fit the bride!

Gorgeous gloves! May I give a completely shameless plug to a fingerless gloves pattern that a friend of mine has published on Ravelry?
it looks great, and so practical!
