I knocked together these babies recently in a wool/silk blend tweed from Jo Sharp, "Silkroad DK Tweed" in a lovely burgundy red colour called "Emporio". They are based on the "36 Stitch Mittens" by Elizabeth Zimmermann, from the book "Knitting Without Tears". I can confirm, no tears were shed. I modified the pattern slightly to 44 stitches wide, to compensate for my gauge and spatulate hands.

They're lovely.
But seriously, isn't it like tropical or something down there?
Not so. We're having a little belated blast of warm this week, but it's mid Autumn here now. Soon it will be winter!
Loverly, just loverly! I've been working on one of my moebius scarves.
Just typing moebius gives me tinglesack. Mmmmm, moebius.
Anyone know what happened to Planet Fabulon?
OMG, no! I have no idea. That's a bit strange, there's just one entry saying it was sucked into a blak hole... weird.
You can wear these with those fabulous socks you made! Or instead of them!
