Alison Scott (she/her)Is like #finishingthingsFriday a thing? I finally picked up the mittens I started knitting in February, reckoning I had plenty of time till Boxing Day. I have now finished *one* of them. #MorrisDancing #fingerlessmitts
Nicole J. LeBoeuf (she/her)@bohemiancoast I love the design! Is there somewhere I can purchase the pattern?
@NicoleJLeBoeuf @westerling the pattern’s called Marvelous Mitts by Karendipity on Ravelry - https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/marvelous-mitts but I have (a) used three colours not two (you just need to keep track, untangle as you go, and have a swear box), and (b) put my own charts in for the Chingford-y bits (pixel art attached) which I just sub in for the charts in the pattern. I’m BohemianCoast on Ravelry (I don’t have a lot of projects on there, but I do have the previous version of these mitts).

Try your artistic hand at these beautiful mitts. The secret recipe is to combine a multi color and a solid yarn. Pattern includes detail instruction on the twined herringbone border, a cool braided cast on, tutorials on fair isle techniques like holding the yarns, trapping the floats, tension issues, and blocking.
@NicoleJLeBoeuf @westerling here’s the link to my previous project (with notes on what I did) on Ravelry — https://www.ravelry.com/projects/BohemianCoast/marvelous-mitts-2
@bohemiancoast @westerling Oh, fantastic! Thank you! Added the Marvelous Mitts pattern to Library with intent to purchase when I get a moment. Favorited your notes. I am a somewhat inconsistent user of Ravelry's social functions, way behind on my pic uploads, but I'm NicoleJLeBoeuf there just like here.
A Vernal Pool@NicoleJLeBoeuf @bohemiancoast That random person that friended you a bit ago on Rav was me, I meant to give you a headsup but things were a little nuts right then. 😂
@westerling @bohemiancoast Whee new fiber friends!
@NicoleJLeBoeuf @bohemiancoast
I have to admit, I've been slacking on the knitting lately (and way behind on any knitting pictures) but man have I got my spinning stuff up-to-date.
@westerling @bohemiancoast Spinning! My Schacht Matchless sits in the corner and glares at me for not having touched it in WAY too long. Somewhere on the birdsite is a photo of my bunny licking it, accompanied by (of course) a bredlik pome. Have to repost it here if I can find it.
The main reason I'm absent from ravelry is I've rediscovered a love for shuttle tatting, which rav doth not acknowledge.
@NicoleJLeBoeuf @bohemiancoast
PS def want to see bunne.
@westerling @bohemiancoast BEHOLD! I have found the tweet and now it is toot:
