That's right. I spent a day watching NCAA BBall and enjoying March Madness. My teams are no longer in the dance, but still I'm caught up in the action.
To be honest, mostly I listen and only glance up when the color commentators get really excited. And that is because I'm caught up in my own color!
In one afternoon, I whipped up a new lacy pair of mitts. These are the simplest type - a crocheted rectangle seamed to fit.
But let's give credit where it is due.
Pattern: Lacy Fingerless Gloves by Christie Pruitt. The pattern indicates that it fits small/medium. My hands are fairly normal so I consider them a medium. The fit is a tad tight to put on, but perfect during wearing. If you have a large hand, consider adding a repeat to the width (caution: math required).
Yarn: Koigu Sparkle. The sparkle shows up well in real life. But it was shy during the photo session. Here is a link to my friend's online shop (yes, this is a plug for Merilyn). She can hook you up with the good stuff.
No Second Syndrome for this old gal.
These turned out great!!! I can't wait to make a pair too!
