Just a little mitt....

About a week ago, Angela over at Revelations of a Delusional Knitter asked me if I would mind test knitting a fingerless mitt pattern. With nothing but the blanket and the cardigan on the go (both large projects) I thought it would be nice to have something small to break things up.
The pattern doesn't have a name yet, but there's a contest to name it - and a chance to win the pattern and some of Angela's lovely yarn.

I finished the first one up today. It's a pretty little mitt. I'm using Twisted Top Cat in Pinewood, which makes them nice and soft. The pattern has the option of beading, so naturally, I did.

A nice little amethyst coloured bead to add a little drama. I'm going to try to finish up the other mitt by tomorrow - then maybe look for a hat pattern to match!

I was hoping you'd bead it (and thought you would), hahaha! I didn't think of beading until I had knit up the first prototype ... then too late for me to try beading myself. They look AWESOME!!!
