Lots of lots of knitting therapy. Really, even more than the knitting, I think I needed a few days of just doing nothing to get it through my head. lol
I managed to get these bad boys out in just about a week! They are called the Daina Mittens,by Tuulia Salmela.
I knit the first thumb in the same pattern as the rest of the body, but there just wasn’t enough room in there for the 3 yarns and my thumb, so I had to rip it back and do it in a single colour. Kinda disappointing. So instead I did something crazy and made the thumbs two different colours: one's green and one's orange. :)
I'll be back tomorrow to talk about some house decorating!
