Yarn Along

For Yarn Along this week, I'm working on a pair of cabled fingerless mitts. The Vancouver Fog mitts have been on my list for a while, and I finally ordered this superwash wool in Allspice to start making them. I'm almost finished with the first mitt. I like the long cuff because I have several very warm sweaters that are only 3/4 length. I hope these mitts will become a staple with those to keep my hands and forearms warm when I'm out in the elements.

I also started reading My Side of the Mountain to the kids. I knew with their love of camping that they would find this book completely fascinating. So far we have not been disappointed!

  1. When I glanced at the picture, I thought how I could have been the one writing this. Ha! I just finished a cabled plait headband that resembles yours laying there and just ordered the audio version of the book for my boys lol. Your mitt is very pretty. I just love the color!
