I'm addicted.... to color work!

If you're here for the blog contest, please see this post!

I had another exciting weekend, filled with family I haven't seen in a while and a football game on Sunday in which the Eagles slaughtered the Lions. To cap the whole weekend off, Joe and I headed down to Atlantic City to take some pictures.

But all the excitement cut into my knitting time, leaving me a little cranky today. I can't help it, I want to knit, I can't wait to see how my latest project comes out, it's just so much fun!

I decided last week that I needed a pair of colorwork mittens, and after some searching on ravelry, I settled on Eunny Jang's Anemoi Mittens.

They're highly addictive, and the pattern is so well written that they're an extremely stress free, easy pattern.


Despite the well written pattern, I did completely mess up the cuff, however that is no fault what so ever of the designers. I just wasn't paying attention. The cuff of the mitten is supposed to be ribbed, and those rows of orangish color are supposed to be purl stitches. I however alternated between knit and purl stitches, resulting in an odd ribbed/garter stitch combination.

I debated ripping it out and starting over, but I actually kind of liked the look of it, so I left it.


By the way, some of you may have noticed a difference in the way the commenting now works on the blog. I had used Haloscan previously, but have been having trouble getting it to work properly with the new blog, so for the time being, I'm back to blogger comments.

I'm hoping I can find someone who knows a little more about html code than I do to help me out. The problem I've been having is that Haloscan works on the main page, but when you go into just that post, the blogger comment link is there and active. It's been driving me crazy and I can't figure it out.
