Thrums

I started on the mittens. They are going pretty well. I don't know really how much roving to use per each thrum. I am worried about running out, I am not sure why, I am sure I could something around here that would work if I do run out.



I think so far my thrums are to big, or have to much fiber in them. I divided the amount of fiber that the kit came with in half, so at least I know each mitten will be even. This is a picture of the inside of the mitten. Can't you just feel summer in the air just looking at it?



Here is the outside. The colour is bad in this picture the mitts are red, but you get the idea.



For more information on Thrummed Mittens check out this post from the Yarn Harlot (she rocks).

Wow! How very cool! Or hot! I've never heard of thrumming. It's great! I'm so happy to see both my daughters so imaginitive. You both have surpassed any skills I have. When I am older and more arthritic I expect very cool stuff to keep me and my honey hot.

I'll have to check out what thrumming is. Can't wait to see the finished product.
