Oh, these are wonderful, wonderful!! I love the colors for the endpaper mittens - that sea blue/black combo is so sophisticated looking. And the Anemoi mittens look great!

Oh, I love the Anemoi pattern! What a great idea to make an asymmetric pattern. I like that you're using one variegated yarn and one solid yarn!

I think you may be ok - the Koigu is a lot denser and the HA, if knit tightly, would be close...I'd keep going! I love that you chose a varigated for the background!
Love the endpaper mitts....

Meant to ask - about how much yarn did you use for the endpapers? I have some 1/2 skeins of sock yarn leftover and was wondering if it would be enough...

Your stranded knitting looks awesome! Don't tell anyone what you did wrong, and no one will know. They look so stinkin' impressive, you could probably tell people they sprung god-like from your needles. Nice work. Do more =)

Those mitts are beautiful! I love the color combination as well. Have yet to try stranding work myself--it's one of the knitting techniques I'm most intimidated by. Great job!

Oh, I LOVE the brown/blue. In fact those are exactly the colors of the t-shirts I'm wearing right now! Wanna trade mitts?

Wow! You are fast! Great job and I really like the blue and black together. Your Anemoie Mittens look like they are going to be winners too.

Beautiful Endpapers! I've got to make myself a pair too. Can't wait to see the Anemoi mitts knit up!

I love the endpapers! They look great! I also keep imperfect knits for myself - sometimes it makes me want to make intentional mistakes every now and then!
The Anemoi mitts look good with multicolored yarn as one of the strands. That's an interesting idea! I hope they're close enough in weight to manage.
I'm really loving that Picky Pants wool soaker pattern. I want to make Beatrix pants just to give her pants - in spite of diapering needs. They look so cute. I recently saw an 18 month old girl toddling around in some. Sooo adorable.

Congrats! I'm totally copying you — my plan is for those two to be my first attempts at stranded, too. But they're irresistible, aren't they?
