Rebel Yell


Anemoi mittens? I don't see any mittens around here. Just a swatch and some yarn off in the corner pouting. It made a trip to the frog pond and is about sent for a time out to the depths of the stash closet. It misbehaved and didn't play well. It was unpleasant to knit, the size was too big and to add insult to injury, the red started to turn the white pinkish.

I suppose the swatch looks suspiciously like a sleeve. My sheepy-tape measure will let me know soon enough. Then I'll have to crunch some numbers. But maybe later, since I've been seduced by something fun to knit.

  4. I found you through your comment over at Rachael's, just dropping in to say hi. It's funny, when I lived in London I had no knitting chums, and now that I've moved away not only have several of my former London friends (who've also left for other towns) taken up the sticks, but I keep finding all of these London people in the blogs.

    So what is the swatch, I mean sleeve, going to be?
