My first mittens July 2, 2006

I decided that Finn needed some mittens to keep his little paws warm, so I set out to knit them, in spite of finding perfectly serviceable $3 gloves at Best & Less.

Here they are. Much too long and a little too narrow, but quite cute all the same.

I blocked them properly (well, as properly as I know how) before seaming because they were so curled up that I doubted I would be able to sew them properly. It was a bit like pinning insects - not that I’ve ever done that…
