A Nordic Summer

The occasional arrival of huge boxes of yarn brings joy 
as well as the prospect of much work!


Summer was a great time to increase my stock of mittens for the shop.
Plus we finally got some photos of the hats Elsa made last winter from my matching patterns.



Pairs of mittens have been piling up for months, overflowing their basket while waiting for wet blocking and drying to smooth out the stitches and overall shape.



All the backs (palms) of my mittens are the same diamond pattern, with two exceptions. The Double-Diamond pattern (yellow, above-center) carries the thicker diamonds to the back. And can you spot the one pair with different thumbs?!
