Gauntlets for Alixandra

After my yarn quest, I decided I might as well do something with the yarn rather than sit there and look at it, drooling. I've started (and almost completed... this week has been stressful. That means more knitting. ... I just realized it's only Tuesday night. Awesome.) the gauntlets for Alixandra. The pattern is called Spirogyra from Knitty.com and I'm making the short length, though they go all the half way up my forearm anyway.

Anyway, left gauntlet is done. I just need to sew in the loose ends. :-)

  3. Kristine! Sent the Jessie Wilcox Smith Good Housekeeping Magazine cover dated February 1918. Published over 80 years ago and still relevant! Darling!

    Hint: Want to hide slight "imperfections" while knitting a scarf? Try Fun Fur yarn and watch life's little goofs disappear.

    To Seattle area enthusiasts: The Sewing and Stitchery Expo is Feb 25 - 28, 2010. Puyallup Fair and Events Center. Huge (over 1,000 booths) wonderful, inspiring.
