mittens for kittens


i'm up to the thumb gusset on these. everything else has been dropped for the joy that is bicolour fair isle. one yarn in each hand, and i can knit like a demon!
i wish there was a little more contract between the colours, but, ah well. lessons learned for next time. pick some really garish colours.
