After seeing CJ's gorgeous mittens, a pattern I have had waiting in my to do folder for a while now, I knew I had the perfect project for some Cherry Tree Hill sock yarn given to me by a very good knitting friend. The colour is Champlain Sunset and too delicious to be hidden away in my boots, so mittens it had to be.



One down one to go.

Tracy

Thanks, they really do glow. I hope the colour stays in when I come to wash them. I had some CTH in Northern Lights, a black shade with flashes of pinks and greens, washed quite a few times now but the colour still bleeds. At least with mittens, I shan't be washing them as often as I would have done socks.

I think I've seen too much children's tv, to me your photo looks like one has attacked the other, they just need eyes and squeaky voices   Wink  Laughing
