Content: 100% Superwash Wool
Needles: Addi Turbo Circular size 5.
Cast on: November 24, 2011
Bound off: December 8, 2011 in Kihei, Maui, Hawaii
Comments: It only uses one 50g ball of yarn. I used fingering weight, though the pattern calls for sport weight.
I did make one change in the pattern. I added 6 rows of garter stitch at the beginning and end so the edges don't curl.

Cast On: Februaruy 23, 2011
Bound Off: May 13, 2011
Comments: These were the prototype mitts for the pattern I wrote. I love this pattern, but then I'm biased because I wrote it. The yarn was a little hard to work with because it splits extremely easily when using sharp pointed needles. (I used Addi Turbo Lace. Very sharp.) So be aware. Other than that, I like it a lot. It feels very nice on the hands and the long color changes look very cool in entrelac.
