Just in Time
Dec. 23rd, 2012 02:33 pmWhew! Christmas knitting is done before the recipients walk through the door!


This is the pair of handwarmers I made for my sister-in-law. I did a mock-cable rib on these, although you kind of can't see the twists in the photo unless you compare them to the ones I did for my brother below. They're a little snug on me, but my sister-in-law is smaller than I am, so I'm pretty sure they'll be okay on her (I have tiny hands, but they're chubby- that's my hand in the photo).


And here are my brother's handwarmers. Same pattern, but I did this one as written with the 2x2 rib. I adored this yarn- there's actually enough left from the skein that I may make myself a pair. They're a little long on me, but my tiny hands don't correlate to my brother's adult male sized hands. I tested them on my dad and they fit him perfectly, so they should also fit my brother.
