This time, my first stranded knitting project. I completed the 2nd mitten the other night and I am, again, left wondering what made me think this project was taking too long.

Perhaps the braids? While they did take a while to work, the entire second mitten only took about 3 days worth of knitting once I’d set my mind to it. Here’s what the inside looks like because I know some of you are into that kind of thing:
This pattern was a very entertaining knit, and I’ll definitely do it again. And what of stranded knitting? It is AWESOME! I can’t wait to do more, only right now I have to turn to Christmas knitting, so it’ll have to wait. Also, I wonder if I can knit a sweater in time for Rhinebeck…
They look fabulous!
They’re gorgeous!
I can’t believe you would post a picture like that! THINK OF THE CHILDREN!!!!
Gotta love stranded mittens, both the knitting and the wearing!
Awesome! I bought a mitten pattern last night that has frogs on it. My Mom absolutely adores frogs, so I’m going to knit her a pair (hopefully) for Christmas.

Very Very nice! I love the flower on the palm of the mitten. That is a really unique/nice touch for a stranded pattern.
