Yarning Along


Two of my favorite things, knitting and reading!  I’m joining Yarn Along over at Small Things this week!
I am in love with the yarn I a using for these fingerless mitts for Kiana.  It is a Cascade 220 yarn.  I don’t remember the color, but you might be able to see from these pictures that it is ridiculously gorgeous - hints of blue and pink whispered  through out the purple.  The pattern is called Handsies.  I really like this pattern, and it has several different sizes so that I can make some for the other children.  I have never knit mittens before, but I am enjoying them.  They are quick and I feel like I have really accomplished something pretty.
I am being encouraged by a book called Found Faithful by Elizabeth R. Skoglund.  
Visit Small Things if you would like to see some other beautiful things!
