Yarn Along

Linking up with Genny again for the Yarn Along over at small things.

No WIP pictures this time, but an "action shot!"  I got 3 mittens done this week - 3 because the first one was way too big, so I had to go down a size.  I'll finish a fourth in the larger size, and then she'll have some to grow into!


Now I need to figure out which knitting project to start next.  I'm thinking it needs to be something for me, but it will probably end up being something for E again.

What have I been reading?  Ummmm . . . aside from numerous children's picture books?  Not much.  I will have a post up on Friday about our books for this week, as part of the reading challenge.  Maybe by next week I will have gotten my act together and actually start a new book!  I even have a couple on my bookshelf calling my name, I just haven't had time to pull them out and say "hello!"

The little mittens looks so cute :) I'm still reading the same book from last week to and from the looks of the pace I'm reading at it may be next weeks book to *grin*. Enjoy the rest of your week!

The mittens are really cute! Maybe I should start knitting some, my girls could definitely use some with all the snow we had.

beautiful mittens! - I'm knitting ones as well...but it's going to take me some time - there's no way how I could finish them in one week :P

The mittens look fabulous, but the wings and the expression on your daughter's face is even better.

Blessings, Elizabeth
