Mind Clutter!

Do you ever have a mind so cluttered that you can't seem to figure anything out? Doesn't help to have a cluttered mind when you are trying to work out knitting math. As I sit and knit all these ideas come to mind. Ways to make things better. Ways to make things more standard. I have been working on knitting gloves & have been working with a couple of different patterns. It shouldn't be that difficult but why do I find that I'm confusing myself every time I pick the needles up again!

So, I have decided it is time to type up the clutter, get it out of my mind, so I can move on to getting my gloves finished. It is another way to simplify. Once I have my basic pattern figured out, I don't need all the other patterns floating around and I will have simplified my knitting of gloves.

Garter Stitch Mitts

I finally finished off a pair of mitts that I started a long time ago. And just in time as the weather has turned really cold!
My first project completed for the year was gloves for my daughter to go with a scarf I made for her for Christmas. The yarn was Chroma from Knit Picks. I love Knit Picks. They have great quality yarn at an affordable price.
