16 feb - hooray, got around to casting on second mitten but can’t remember what cast on i used! i think it was two-colour alternating long tail which is what i did again, but got the colours reversed. must remember to make note of these things!!
13 feb - brown and green short rows, k last 18 sts in brown and continue in brown. On 4th extra row, at end start decrs. Left mitten complete, 8gm bagabo left, 29gm crucci.
10 feb - finished left mitt but then ripped hand back to diagonal rows. Had used the pink bo peep and it was just horrible! Also didn’t do any incrs or decrs in the diagonal stripes and that doesn’t work. Have now redone diagonal stripes, working incrs as yo and knitting into the back of the stitch on the next row.

diag row 2 - k2, ssk, k1, k2tog
