Progress (and a little Regress)
I have actually regressed in my Christmas knitting. I (by I, I mean Sherry) decided that something I was working on was being stitched a little too tight. Over lunch today, I ripped it all out and started again. Thankfully, it is a pretty quick knit so I’ll be caught up soon. It was another one of these things:
Over the weekend, I was a little bored with knitting for others so I started my Endpaper Mitts. I finished one and I love it.
I’m using Gems Merino (Pearl) in Teal and Sandalwood. I didn’t mean to pick colors so close to Eunny’s. I must have gone through about 52 color combos at the yarn store before settling on this one.
Here is a nice close up of my tubular bind off. I also did a tubular cast on (my first time for both) but it wasn’t really picture-worthy.
I’ll leave you with this, another xmas gift:
The Endpaper Mitts are so pretty!! I ordered yarn for mine, but when they came and I tore them excitedly out of the package, I decided that the two colors didn’t really go very well together, so mine have been temporarily postponed. Yours turned out lovely!!

Yes. You were right. It is much better on size 6 needles.
