these sweet little mitts.....

kicked my arse! 


and i really don't know why! could it be that the pattern write-up was poorly done (true!) or that i didn't totally zone in and take proper notes (true!) but, my gosh, there were no fancy or unfamiliar stitches! should have been a piece of cake, right? wrong!!!

i knit this mitt five times before i got a pair that i was somewhat satisfied with but they still have a way to go! i think my next go round, and there WILL be a next go round as i have no plans of letting this little number beat me, i will produce a pair that i am totally happy to call my own! i downloaded the pattern (circle mitts - free on ravelry) in goodreader so i was able to make notes right on the pattern which really helped with stitch counts and such.

now that i've finished this diversion, i've got to get back on task and get some positive mojo goin'!! yeehaw!
