Notes

Started this 15th or 16th.

Small road block with Work Carbon stitch pattern A. From what I can tell rows 8 and 10 are one stitch short of the total stitch count.

It says “Rows 8 and 10: SL3 WYIF,(K1, SL5 WYIF), repeat fromx8 (10), K3.”
I ended up having to add k1 right after the last SL5 WYIF, then k3 in order to make it to the end of the round.

I can’t seem to spot that specific area on other projects posted but so far it doesn’t seem to alter the pattern, everything else lines up nicely so I’m going with it.

Ended up doing 1x1 ribbing for the hand and thumb cuff.

I am quite sure I removed a few repeats and vetoed a few increases for the thumb otherwise it would have been too big. I should have paid better attention because it could have been smaller sooner.

Now to make the other one!

me tension was a lot tighter on the second mitt, which works just fine but it makes up for a bit of the slackness the first one had.
If I had the time I would probably make another one to get a evenly fit pair from them but these will be just fine to wear for the occasion.
