Cutting it close, again -


 This is the second glove in a pair of fingerless gloves that I made for my friend Felicity -

See that tail?  That is all there was left of the handspun grey yarn. And since I had no more roving left, that's all there was ever going to be. 

I had suspected that I would run short, which is why I put the turquoise and black stripes - but I didn't think I would come THIS close!  The good news was that they fit, and she liked them.  Yay -

Well, that puts a little suspense in the knitting game. The mitt and the homespun look real nice. You are good at the knitting thing if you can figure that close.

I hate the anxiety, but LOVE not having significant bits left over. I want to use ALL the yarn for a project; it satisfies some strange part of my personality!

Whew! When you run out then you decide you need an edging in a different color ;) Stevie@ruffledfeathersandspilledmilk.com
