Knitting. I know, shocking!




A few months ago I made these for my cousin in law, Jessica. She is a photographer and needed some photographer mittens (I got the idea from Bea at http://knittingandsomemore.blogspot.com/search/label/mittens ).

I wanted to use the pattern for Bella's mittens and then
use Bea's finger hole pattern. They worked wonderfully. I think





I did the finger hole a little too high but it'll work :). These mittens knit up really dense and toasty. I loved the finished product

Pattern: Bella's Mittens/Photographer Mittens
Yarn: Cascade 220 doubled




The little headband is for her daughter Avery. She is the most adorable girl. I used Rose's Hat pattern by Verla Younker and I continue to love that pattern. It knits up so quickly. The flower is from Head Huggers and seems to take forever but I really like the result so I continue doing it.


Pattern: Rose's Hat (flower, Head Huggers)
Yarn: Sublime Cashmerino (flower, Cascade 220)

See, I still knit. Although not as often lately and that makes me sad. I will pick it up, you know, on that eternal plane ride to and from London ;).

Peace out,

Heidi
