    nothing to write but I made a commitment, goshdarnit

    It's Friday night, we got pizza from our favorite place, Jacob and I have fixed our cocktails, and Charlie is happy after a walk with his girlfriend (a neighbor's boxer named Espe - they're really cute together). That's about all I have to say at the moment! My Potter is calling to me - it's been a few days since I've worked on it. It's time.

    Would you like to see the cuff of the Rinconada mitts? I was thinking and thinking about what to do and just wasn't sure, and then it hit me when I was out on a walk: I'm doing a garter stitch but carrying the slipped stitches up from the bottom.

    I'm happy! Well, truthfully: I LOVE IT and I'm ridiculously pleased with myself and the little mitts. I'm working on the thumb gusset now. I've also obviously stopped caring about whether the pictures I post of myself are flattering, but whatever! My goal is to finish one mitt this weekend and write up the pattern in this size... if I can get all three sizes worked out to try, that would be great, but I want to see how this gusset goes, first.

    I hope you have a great weekend!

    The mitt looks great Mary-Heather! And as for your photos - you always look adorable!
