My second go at this pattern. This time I’m using the weight of yarn indicated in the directions.

I followed the pattern last time, but I didn’t like the plain edging. This time around I wanted a picot edging. I abandoned that idea after reading several tutorials.

Instead I did the following, as per the Susie’s Reading Mitts:

1. P
2. K
3. P
4. K
5. K
6. (yo, Ktog) for the entire round
7. K
8. K
9. P
10. K
11. P
12. I started at Round 1 of the Growing Leaves pattern

I intentionally did not knit the starter rows (1-3) as indicated in the pattern. There’s a sort of scalloped edge, but I like the effect.
