MORE KNITTING:
Inspired by Sarah, I cast on some Snowball Throwin’ Mittens .
Super quick — the first pair is earmarked for Davy in his favorite color du jour. They’ll be so great for keeping his hands warm & dry while playing in the snow! I had the first mitten knit in just a little more than an evening.
The second one went even quicker!! Hmm… no wonder… I skipped over a big chunk of repeats for the thumb gusset! I’ll give it a go again tomorrow night (I won’t be knitting tonight during Leslie Odom Jr’s show). I plan to make a pair for Junah, too, at least.

As predicted, I am very much enjoying The Comfort of Crows: A Backyard Year by Margaret Renkl. Perfect.

ah, Vicki, that beret is so stylish! … and I’ve been pondering those mittens for the dog walkers in my life – what a great pattern!
That beret is beautiful and I’ll look forward to seeing Ginny wearing it! I haven’t had great luck with felting in the past, but I might need to try a pair of those Snowball Throwin’ Mittens myself.
Oh my gosh, I love that hat! I can’t wait for the modeled shots. And of the mittens, too.
That Beret is perfect!! I cannot wait to see Ginny wearing it. An d the mitts for Davy – those kids will be so happy!!
OOh a beret. I think I need to make one for me. Love the colour of the yarn.
I think that beret is just so dang cute!! I predict Ginny will be the pièce de résistance of Christmas!! Snow ball throwing mittens are a must have! Good for you for knitting a couple of pairs!
That beret is perfection! But I’m sure it’ll be even cuter modeled by its recipient than a bowl!
What a pretty beret. I love to knit with Rowan Felted Tweed. I predict this gift will be a success. Don’t you hate it when you make a mistake on a straight forward knit? However, that mitten will knit up in no time at all.
The beret . . . c’est magnifique! Can’t wait to see Ginny wearing it!!!! And the mittens look great, Vicki. They’ll be perfect for playing in the snow. XO
