Notes

5/12/10: I chose the cord rib. This rib is one that I have never done before, so it will be a challenge. I will have to do one mitt and switch them to cable holders and do the other mitt. I am wishing I would have done 2 different colors to jazz these up! FROGGED THIS YARN.

5/16/10: I am done with cuffs on one mitt and half done on the other. Computer crashed and I just got to my sisters today to get the next clue. I did the 2 x 2 rib with the Purple Haze yarn. I really like the yarn and wanted the color to really show with a little texture. I am happy with this rib.

5/13/10: I frogged the poolside mitts. I decided that it just wasn’t what I wanted. This color needed trimmed in my mind for me and I didn’t have another color of this same yarn. After I order a color to contrast with it, I will definitely do another pair of these with it. I have decided to go with Hazel Knits Purple Hazel (90% superwash, 10% nylon). That would be the photo on the bottom.

5/17/10: Cuff done on both. I will start moss stitch today.

5/18/10: Done with moss stitch/clue 3. Loving them so far!
