putting some pressure on myself

raven mittensI promised myself last night that if I can finish the Norse Raven mittens by saturday, I can start another project or two if I even if I haven’t finished anything else.

I’m finding I really like doing color work, specially in this style. With it’s pointy tips and checker patterns. (Sorry for the lousy phone pic.)

I started the 2nd one last saturday, so a mitten in a week seems doable. Even though it took me several months the finish the first.

Okay it took me Dec to mid-August. It has been so long I had to double it check on  my Ravelry page. I guess my partner is a very patient man.

I am really liking the book, despite my not actually using it very much.
And enough with what I’m working on now– lace shawl- what?

Let’s see what I want to start next.

 

reversible snood First up hat of my own making, I reeeally need a better name than revresable snood. But there  you go, I learned how to do brioche knitting a fews years back and made up this hat as an excuse to use it. I like to use one solid yarn and one multi colored. If they match really well it results in a awesome blending effect.
Any who I have one planed in tans and blacks next.

My next idea is to do Wunderlust which a friend of mine has knitted up and now I must have a pair too. I just luv big squishy cables.
I have some of this green yarn from another project, hopefully there’s enough or I’ll have to go shopping…
