Taking a break...

.....from the larger projects. Much too warm; even for me! But I still want to knit. I've started a pair of fingerless mitts. Using a pattern from "Knitting Fair Isle Mitts and Gloves". I'm using some more of my millspun wool/mohair. The background is a natural grey and the pattern colour is a pretty medium blue. On 2.5mm needles at a gauge of 8sts & rows/inch, these will be sturdy enough to use when doing chores in the barns.

Stay cool & happy knitting!
