What have you been up to?

We were out celebrating Halloween! And making a few things too.

I made these orange gloves from the remnants of my jack o lantern teapot cozy. My friend Rosie said that if I knit a mask out of the same yarn that I could have been The Thing (Fantastic Four) for Halloween. Too right!

Then I decided to try these in a different color:


I am officially on a glove knitting kick. These are both the from the same pattern but adapted to the smaller gauge needles that I wanted to work on. It's that Urban Rustic Glove that is up over on knitty.com The pattern is a little funny. I've got a few random holes that I'm not sure about. I think a more furry or chunky type of yarn would suit this better, though the gloves already fell quite chunky on. The woman who designed them did it with a multicolored yarn. Maybe I'll try that next.

Foxy.
