Sample Hiro Mittens - DONE!

Started Sept 27/16
Finished Oct 3/16









Sept 28/16 - I agree with the others who have knitted the pattern.  I would go with a lot less stitches for the thumb.  It's HUGE.

Started the first one with Size 7.  Did 2nd one Size 6 much better.  Only did 13 stitch for thumb.


Needles:  Size 6 circular

Yarn:  Cestari Super Fine Merino 2 ply Aran in Black Rose, Thistle Pod, Wheat and Sage

B Unicorn Hat - DONE!

Started Sep 6/16
Finished  Sep 6/16




I'm doing the brim in the Knit Pick yarn because I'm worried I will run out of yarn since I need to make it bigger then the Adult Small pattern included with the Top This yarn.

Only knitted 6" before doing the decrease and it fits my big head.
