Notes

The final result is:

  • a project very funny to knit, I enjoyed making this mittens a lot
  • a little bit small in the fingers (not to have holes I had to take some yarn at the sides of the fingers…)
  • only problem is the join, it looks almost perfect but maybe I can read more about knitting fair isle in the rounds (how to avoid any small hole).
  • advice: better with short dpns!

Mars 22th, Sunday knitting the little fingers! this is the worst part! trying not to have holes between the fingers. I wanted to finish every finger in one of the colors because the gloves are for a young niece… but I couldn’t find the right stitch for that (I kept frogging and trying…). So finally only blue.

Jan 20th, very pretty yarn, the color is Klein blue!!! This yarn is so soft, I like it very much.
