What I did last night...

   So a few weeks ago I lost one of my mittens.  I love these mittens.  They're the kind that has the flap that turns the mittens into fingerless gloves.  I don't know if anyone knows what I'm talking about, but I bought a pair back in college and have proceeded to buy a few more pairs when the mittens have died.  Well, I lost one.  And I was devastated.  I thought that I had lost it on campus somewhere when I had gone to work out, so I sent Kyle to check the various lost and founds.  Nothing.  So I started shopping around.  The ever money conscience Kyle, suggested I just make a pair.  Well, the idea appealed to me, but if anyone knows me, I am not a huge fan of lengthy crochet projects.  I am a 'sit down and get it done in one sitting' kind of girl.  Well, last night I spent over FOUR hours working on one mitten/glove.  I'm pretty proud of myself.  Kyle is so funny about my crochet products.  He always thinks everything is the coolest thing he has ever seen.  Well, here's a couple pics of my mitten/glove making adventure.  I think that I'll redo this, and not make a second like this one.  I want the cuff longer and the glove needs to be a little bigger in general.  But it's still pretty cool!

The mitten!  (with the flap down). For those that aren't familiar with this kind of mitten/glove, the button is to keep the flap back, when needed.

the fingerless glove!  (please forgive the chipped nail polish)  ;)
