Another pair of mittens finished! I once again used the Wool-Ease Mittens pattern by Stephanie Taylor. This was knit with 100 yards of Brown Sheep Lambs Pride Bulky yarn with size 10 double point needles. These are really warm and the fit is perfect. If anyone wants the details on my project pop on over to my Ravelry page. (I did very minor mods on the pattern - the pattern is pretty much perfect just as it was written!)
I keep making mittens in an effort to stop my hands from cracking and bleeding so much. Sadly - it's not helping too much. I am still struggling with chapped and bloody hands. BUT I will keep trying to wear mittens and moisturize in an effort to stop this.
Temperatures are well below normal here in the Twin Cities. It's been cold and the roads have been awful to drive on. Every year I wonder why we live here. It's just bitter cold and miserable. Maybe I will have to look at pictures of my garden from this summer. Summer in Minnesota is awesome.

Love the mitts and you do need them right about now!! lol. Our temps are complete opposites. At the moment we have 43C and roasting! That's summer in Australia for you.
Cheers, Anita.
@Anita It sure has been cold here! I am envious that you are in your summer season! :) To bad we couldn't swap just a little bit of our weather so I could have a warm day or two and you could have some heat relief. Dare to dream I guess! :)
Thanks for the comment Anita! :)Take care!
