mitts in august

My alarm clock thermometer says 95 today. These are made with with the seahorse yarn I dyed last week.

Here is some more yarn to dye. I unraveled a scarf from the $2 clothing rack. It doesn't feel like 75% silk but it's pretty nice anyway. There's a lot of it - enough for a lace shawl. I think the original scarf was made with two strands of lace weight held together.


This is nautie, an ancient snail with tentacles. I'm using fingering weight instead of worsted. Almost done


I have plans for double knit mittens...maybe to make in the fall. I don't have enough patience right now.
