Soon
Pattern: A new design - coming soon.
Yarn: Schaefer Heather; 55% Merino Superwash, 30% Silk, 15% Nylon
Needles: US 1.5
Laura at Schaefer sent some beautiful yarns for me to play with. This gorgeous fingering weight seemed perfect for a pair of mittens. I set to work on the design almost immediately after the yarn arrived.
Don't forget to VOTE tomorrow!! Bring your knitting, the lines could be long.

Oh, this one looks great!

I voted early and I'm so glad I did. You do realize I'm waiting for Acer, right. The mittens will be fabulous.

I wish I could vote tomorrow - they don't trust me with that responsibility yet. But I will be up very late avidly watching the results!

I voted/knitted (early) this morning! Bringing a camp chair makes the line more bearable! :)

I can't WAIT to get to the polls tomorrow. And I'm chuckling at your ballot--if you've got Lautenberg on yours, too, we must be neighbors! (Well, fellow New Jerseyans, anyway.)

I love the rich color of that yarn. The stitches seem to really pop out of it, too.
Hubby and I voted early to avoid the lines. I'm so ready for this election to be behind us.

These are fantastic. Can't wait for this pattern.
Unexpectedly it only took me 10 minutes to vote! My precinct is small though.
