Texting Mitts

By katnap

I started these on a day hot enough to have the windows open. It’s a balmy 70 degrees in Atlanta today. I opened the windows and bound off a pair of fingerless mitts that I may not get a chance to wear this year….oh well.

My niece calls them texting mitts. I call them fingerless mitts or wrist warmers. It’s about all you need during the mild southeastern winters.

Yarn: Rowan Pure life silk/viscose/cotton Blend

Color: Rock

Pattern: From Knitty.com-Voodoo Wrist Warmers

All this balmy weather has caused me to drop the cardi idea. Instead of a nice bulky wool, I placed an order yesterday for 3 skeins of linen in a calm cool sandalwood shade. It should be in my mailbox Monday or Tuesday.

If you can’t wear them this year, there’s always next! They’re beautiful.

I love fingerless mittens. This yarn is sumptuous. You do such lovely work.
