Mittens and Leg Warmers

An update for those of you who expressed interest in the finished product. These little fluffies are on their way to Boston this morning. (It's a dime, not a quarter.)

I'm working on a pair of baby mittens for my OFG's niece. She's about half a year old and lives in the Boston area, so mittens are a really good idea. Her mother is an absolute sweetheart and requested a pair of hand knit mittens. I'm a sucker for requests like that! The yarn is two pieces carried together, one is a sock weight very plain white artificial blend, and the lavendar is Knitting Fuzzy Fur which is a super thin eyelash type yarn.

I know this isn't quilting, but it's hand work and it's fun. Gotta put a thumb on this one and then make the other one. They won't be there in time for Christmas, but I bet she'll be wearing them by the New Year.
