jill in a shoebox

I haven't updated this blog for months - I tend to spend a lot of time knitting and surfing ravelry these days....hard life, eh?

I totalled about 50 - 60 hats in all for my shoebox charity. But when november came, they weren't needed!They had done an appeal in the local paper and had loads of hats with pairs of mittens to match!So, I told myself, let's practice making mittens to match. So that has been the main focus of my knitting now. Only problem is I can't find a pattern to match the basketweave style. I did make one up, but I wasn't very pleased with them...
I put 2 or 3 sets in the boxes I made up myself
