So this is definitely not lace knitting. But it’s getting mighty cold here at the moment, and with the threat of snow, I want to be prepared. I’ve been wearing my Bronte Mitts quite happily so far, but now I need to get my fingers covered up!
Enter Diane’s Winter Garden Mittens. I’ve had four balls of Jamieson’s Shetland Spindrift in my stash since the summer, so it was just a case of finding the yarn *ahem* and getting started.

I found the two colour ribbing took a long time to do, but it looks so pretty that I’m glad I persevered. I did consider just knitting the cuff in one colour…
Anyway, I also have a new helper to knit a few rounds for me:

He came all the way from Kai’s house in Germany this morning, and he’s already making himself at home…

I just hope he’s housetrained.





The mitts look lovely so far.. love the colours you’ve chosen!
Now would I send you a bunny that wasn’t house-trained??? Glad you’ve got him working already!
Is that why he has his legs crossed? LOL
He’s gorgeous!! Bunnies are very clean, don’t worry. Just be sure to change his water regularly.
