We all know I know I have love affair with mittens. I like to knit them, I like to give them away, I even like to wear them (good thing since winter lasts a long time around here).
This pattern is a recent find for me, even though it was released in 2008. Phedre is a pattern by the infamous spillyjane (a canuck mitten knitting genius!). It's based on the books by Jacqueline Carey. I read this series many years ago when the Superstar was little. Warning to future readers: this is a graphic dark series. I loved it!
These mittens are a reflection of that darkness, from the black rose tattoo to the blood red mitten. They are perfect!
How do you like wearing a mitt like that above compared to one w/the separate finger coverings?
ReplyDeleteooh, that is a gorgeous mitt!! love the colours.

ReplyDeleteLike a glove? I like wearing gloves but I love mittens, something about them reminds me of being a kid. Plus, they're warm. I do wear gloves all the time though, my Isotoner leather gloves in particular.
