When I made a recent pair of fingerless gloves for the Girl’s assistant teacher who taught her many, many baptism classes, the Girl thought I needed to make some for her main teacher as well. Well, OK! I can knit more without much prodding!
I chose a skein of Noro Silk Garden, because I had four skeins of it from an abandoned project. Also, I had chosen a super special yarn for the assistant teacher- Devbie Bliss Cashmerino Aran, and because the assistant had done so much for the baptism, I didn’t want the second mitts to outshine the first, ya know? The skein I chose was beige-ish. Still very special and pretty.
Tonight I finished the mitts!
I’ll block them, which should fluff them up a bit. I like the subtle asymmetry of the colors. Most likely I’ll have the Girl gift them to her teachers after First Communion, which is this weekend!
