Warm Hands
The cold snap is coming and with our house at 62F during the day, I think I'd better finish these up so I can keep typing:
It shouldn't be long now, but I expect it will be spring before I do the embroidery that Kristin included in the original pattern.
Tomorrow I'll be getting around to the promised expose of my unblogged knitting -- there's a lot of it -- today was just too icky to take all those pictures.
Is that with the heater on? It's the same temp. as my place and sometimes I think I need a pair of those. Gorgeous colours!

These are adorable! What yarn did you use? I want some.

This is my solution to the 62F house. http://www.amazon.com/Lasko-751320-Ceramic-Heater-Control/dp/B000TTSXNI/ref=sr_1_23?ie=UTF8&s=home-garden&qid=1195223407&sr=1-23. It works quite well if the door to the study is kept closed. I save the hand warmers for my office in NYC, where the wind seems to whip through every nook and cranny.

I can't wait to read about all those unblogged UFOs. Do tell!

How can you even knit at 62F? I thought I kept our heat low at 66F, but I guess that's oasis-like.
Great looking mitts though... frills too!

Cute mittens! That's pretty cold. I'm used to 68 though, thanks to Jimmy Carter, eons ago.

I love those- and I think they're great as they are. Embroidery might be gilding the lily.

Great mitts! I know all about having cold hands while working at the computer. Our school can be very cold in the teachers' room. Hugs from Berlin!
