There are some changes I'd like to make to the pattern, but it's pretty close to being the way I want it. Now to spin up some really special yarn for the next pair!
Finished Mitts
Mum said "what about some of that jacob fleece you have?" I wasn't sure that it was brown enough, but parts of the marble yarn are black / white and so I spun and plied a little up and it's worked a treat!

Wow i'm so pleased the jacob worked for you. There is nothing worse than not being able to finish off a piece of work that close to the end. as i found out with my "curly" scarf. Can't wait to see your special spun wool.
It is frustrating - I usually end up with way too much left over or find I don't have enough!
Check back soon to see the special yarn I have dreamed up!
What do you need to finish your curly scarf? Try having a scout around www.laughinghens.com to see if you can find it or something similar.
Seriously, I am so impressed. I'm sitting over here State side working on a lacy shawl for my mother, and you're over there spinning your own yarn and making something really cool.
I'm sure your lace shawl is no less cool than my mitts - I'm intrigued - please post some pictures! lace knitting fascinates me - 'knitting with holes'!
