Notes

All I do is stash, stashbust no matter what. I have so many skeins of yarn (mostly Knit Picks) and so many projects I haven’t ever gotten around to. So this is my attempt to use at least two.

In my experience Palette colors vary a lot in roughness but are significantly inferior in general softness to thicker Knit Picks yarns. They’re so scratchy! After the sheep sweater, which is like Seinfeld episode level of itchy, I am endeavoring not to make sweaters out of it again. Though I am cheap, and it comes in a variety of colors, so I am not fully committing. So here I am making mittens. This pattern is so beautiful, so cheery for the winter and very holiday-appropriate; exactly the fair isle I want!
