Three weeks...

That's how long it took me to weave in the ends on these.  I started them when I was up in AK, because my current flip top mittens made of Noro were scratching my hand (I couldn't find a single piece of VM though).  So in Fairbanks, I bought two skeins of Pastanza to make these.  This is all Turtlegirl's fault.  She sent me a few skeins of Pastanza to make a Lucy bag and got me addicted to it.  The snow and cold weather today finally forced me to weave in the ends.




I also finished a pair of socks... these took me about three weeks worth of Wednesday classes (10 hours worth each day... Wednesdays suck..)



Classic Elite Alpaca Sox
less than one skein
US 2.5mm

As warm and soft as they are, I probably won't use this yarn again.  I don't know if it was the alpaca or the nylon, but something hurt my finger where I wind the yarn to tension it.

Enough projects mom? :)
