Project Specs:

Start Date: February 12, 2007

Comments: I had to adjust the needle size due to guage problems, I am a really tight knitter, so I made these on size 3 and 5's instead of 0's and 3's. But they fit me perfectly, I made the largest size, as my measurement is 8.25. It was SUCH a fun knit though!! I think I might make another pair of these someday. My next colorwork project will be the anemoi mittens, but first I am halfway through the left front of the cardigan for arwen. It is turning out really nice, I am using knitpicks andean silk. Pictures of that to come!!

Those are just gorgeous. Can't wait to attack fair isle myself!
Great colors!
Thanks for answering my millions of sock questions! :) I suppose with time and experience I'll just know how much is enough huh? Your mittens are absolutely gorgeous. Looks like you are a colorworking pro! I have been eyeing Eunny's mittens, but living in California doesn't really make for cold weather. But maybe I'll make them anyway! ;)
Beautiful! I'm still torn between these and that skulls and crossbones hat from Hello Yarn.
I love your color choice. Also, when you're wearing them, any unevenness is gone (and I didn't notice it to begin with...).
Those mitts are wonderful! Fair Isle is scary.
Awesome mittens!! The colors look so good together, great choice.
