Mittens

I am ready to ship most of my christmas gifts except the calandar that my sister and I made. I made Jeff some pre-christmas mittens that I am sending out tomorrow. I found a great lopi pattern for quick convertible mittens. I will shorten the mitten top next time to a total of 18 rounds, not 18 above the ribbing. Either that or attach the mitten top lower. Either would work, but they turned out too long, and I got the gauges=both row and stitch. The cutest thing about them is that they have a hole in the thumb so you can wear them while using your cell phone. I think Jeff will appreciate that.
So, tomorrow is wrapping, boxing and mailing. Wahoo! Well ahead of Dec 21.
