I was so happy with where I was with all my WIPs that I felt confident to participate in an Advent mystery knitalong. I thought that I would even do a little Blogmas/Blogvent and post pictures every day of each day’s clues. But I thought that might not be very interesting so I’ll post periodic progress.
The pattern is for mittens which is very doable over 25 days. You can make fingerless mitts, flip top or full mittens and the nice thing about that is that I don’t have to make a decision until the end as to what sort of mitts I want. I had some yarn left over from a different Advent Knitalong and I am happy to get to use it up. The coloured yarn is leftover from this gnome and the light yarn is from the first socks.
So far there have been between 5 and 9 rows each day with the first and last rows all knit in the main colour so not onerous knitting. Although I was behind before I started as the cuff was knit at the end of November ready for the first patterned clue on the first of December but I didn’t want the mitts to go across two months so I knit the cuff on the 1st and clues 1 and 2 on the 2nd. Since then I have worked each clue on the correct day.
Here is a picture up to day six.
