Fingerless Mitts

The Craft Kits for Hats all sold so I am now trying out some fingerless mitt ideas.

These are the first attempt

Pretty good if I do  so say myself!

I used 54 g of worsted yarn which is less than the hats
We have lots of 4.5 mm needles so I chose to use those
The pattern is written for 2 straight needles as these are supposed to be beginner patterns

Doll Blanket

I was sure that I already wrote this up.  I have no idea where the post went but maybe I just put it up on Ravelry

Made this  using left over scraps from the two baby blankets I made for MRR. She loves to wrap her dolls up and sing them to sleep so this will be part of her Christmas present.

I picked up around the edge once I was out of the different coloured scraps and then added extra rows in pink to make it rectangular so that it would fit her doll crib
