A little bit of me and my passion for fiber arts and crafts. Everything from spinning and weaving, to knitting, crocheting and even sewing.

Arabian Knit Dreams
I have been working on these mitts, and a hat to match the last few days. I sometimes get interrupted while I'm in the zone and I loose my concentration, there is a knock on the door, or someone wants something. I depart my world of knitting and give a hand, I come back to my work and start up again, but I'm not yet in the zone and I find it hard to get back there. Luckily I don't get so deep in that getting back to where my head space at is a problem, but when it does occur, I unravel and start again, that is what happened with these. I was counting cable stitches and just well my counter was adjusted, it was just one of those things, but I could really see the cable was off. I tried to just go back a little, but no, the unfinished glove was telling me to unravel all and start from the beginning. It was worth it... These knit up quickly after that and I am learning to say, I'll be with you when I'm done. I'm working on a hat to match, when that's done I'll post. this pair of fingerless mitts was fun to make and they are nice and warm.... I love the color; I call it Arabian Knight Blue, it reminds me of the deeply star speckled starlit skies in all those movies about the Arabian knights.
