Make It Monday: Vanilla Caramerlettos

So, I may be one of the world's slowest knitters, but occasionally I do make quantifiable, verifiable progress.

This weekend, I completed one half of a pair of Merletto mitts, out of my handspun merino, from Fat Cat Knits. Despite my issues with spinning merino, sometimes, the yarn came out very nicely, and it didn't take me long to cast something on with it.

Finishing it is another story.

As is getting accurate color out of my camera today, apparently. This is as close as I could get to the real color. It's lighter and creamier in real life.

Progress is still progress!

    HI, Sarah-

    I came over for a visit from your Ravelry page. Found these fingerless mittens- they are so beautiful! The lace and cables, juxtaposed with the brown and toffee stripes, is extremely appealing :)

    Hi Ginny!

    Thank you so much! They started with your beautiful fiber, so I'm glad you've gotten to see the progress so far.
