Looks a little more like it could possibly turn into a bear, doesn’t it? As it is for new knitters, it’s all about the tension. I’m getting better but this bear will certainly be bulletproof.
Little Man considers himself to be Bob Ross. Seriously. He watches him after Mr. Rodgers every Thursday. I’m not quite sure how I feel about this. Unfortunately, Little Man is unable to grow the required ‘fro to truly be a Bob Ross afficionado. That’s a mountain with a storm, in case you were wondering.
Too big? Nah……
The Target Waves are done and in use. We had to roll up the cuffs and they are still a little big but they’ll do. I’m regretting not doing them in a superwash, such as Mission Falls and they are getting trashed in our muddy backyard. White on a little boy’s mittens? What was I thinking? Anyway, here are the specs:
Pattern: Target Wave Mittens, IK Knits Fall 2006
Yarn: Lamb’s Pride in Cream and Steadfast Fibers in Carrot Cake
Needles: size 6 and 7, Crystal Palace
Guage: 4.5 stitches per inch
You know…Little Man has a good eye, there. I can see what he’s aiming for with very little of the squinting. I think he’s got some talent!
And I’m definitely seeing a bear in the works as well!
Yep…definitely more bear like. Yay! I may have to make myself a pair of those mittens.
I do love those mitts. I may have to give them a whirl.
Little Man is doing pretty darn good with the old paintbrush.
those little mitts are SOOOOO CUTE!!!
