dear cashmere,


why must you be so soft?
why don't you irritate my skin like other wools?
why, oh why, do stitches look so good on you?
please cashmere, think of me.

sincerely,
the poor knitter




Pattern: Broadstreet Mittens & Panta

Yarn: Cashmere from School Products
Needles: Size 6 for Panta and Size 2 for Broadstreet Mittens
Like: Of course, it's cashmere

The mittens were my second project ever, first time knitting in the round, increasing, decreasing etc... I completely changed the mittens pattern, it was basically a try on and knit a few rounds method. Please excuse the ugly cast offs and the huge hole in the thumb since I had no idea what I was doing. *note to self: must fix soon*

The panta was fun and super quick. I actually wore it today in the morning and looked like the bad-booty knitter that I am.
