However, during the long orientation meetings this week I have been knitting away and have managed to finish my second Ravellenic Games project, a pair of fingerless mitts!
The yarn used was about half a skein of Manos del Uruguay Silk Blend I received as a wonderful graduation present. It was my very first experience with Manos del Uruguay yarn and I must say it was a joy to work with. This particular yarn base was single ply, which I've always been fond of because it gives a soft edge to the fabric. I also love the colorway, it reminds me of Fall, so I finished them just in time.
The pattern was Easy Fingerless Mitts by Maggie Smith, selected because I needed something simple to follow and I didn't feel like trying to work through designing them myself. I'm definitely happy with how they came out.
I hope that you are all having a wonderful Friday! Happy crafting!
