How did I double-row my mittens?

My Double-Rolled Mittens are done. I'm so happy with them.
... And the DH is looking for his!



I'll attempt to tell you how I did it thru pictures . . .






The fit is great!!



Now I've got a few plans for a multitude of projects in this Special Issue from Interweave Knits ... Oh when will I have the time to complete everything I have planned?



It's too cold outside for Hibiscus, so we brought the plants in a few weeks ago. And sitting in the well-lite mudroom seems to agree with it ... Such beautiful final Summer blooms!

Nice mittens Rhonda and quite the slide show! There are a few things in the Holiday Issue I know I want to make. That flower is such a tease given the weather outside - it's a Winnie the Pooh blustery, rainy, cold day here!

Wow Rhonda...amazing slide show and mitten creating. Is that made with your hand warmers? Or is it another pair of mittens? I want to make sure you get count for them if they aren't the wrist warmer ones you have already made.

WOW. Thanks for the slideshow, that was amazing! I wonder how unspun superwash roving would act knit into the soles of socks... Very cool.
