Notes

Bust the Stash Project 6

I hope the Chickadee isn’t too plump. It’s more of a DK than sport-weight, IMO.

I’ve extended the wrist section to 21R (instead of 14R). I might go up to 28 stitches next time I make this.

While the pattern isn’t immediately knowable, you can pick it up pretty quickly. Each mitt is knit in mirror image of the other so you have to learn 2 different variations on the pattern (left and right).

What I really like is that, while you do have to concentrate, you don’t need to concentrate too much. I can knit one in a couple of hours.

I think the small in this weight of yarn works perfectly. Not too big or too small!
