The Continental Experiment


Or, "Lessons I learned about Gauge." Please amuse yourself with my first attempt at colorwork. These are Eunny Jang's Endpaper Mitts. Don't see it? Here's a closer look.


Significant difference, The left mitt is much looser. When I realized this, I scoured the internet for videos on how to hold the working yarn properly when doing two handed color work. Then I figured it out and my gauge got more consistent.

Yikes.

Finished Product with hand models on tap for tomorrow.
