Mutants and Fancy Hands

Check out this CRAZY mutant sunflower that is in our front yard.. I thought it was appropriate, because it looks like a Mardi Gras mask. Mother Nature is sending subliminal messages... thoughts to everyone down in New Orleans..














So I had the day to just hang out- I didn't do a darn thing, except for make these....
I am thinking about putting "lids" on them so they can be mittens.
I got the pattern out of the book "Weekend Knits". I bought the yarn at La Bussola, but they are getting it from here.
I love the colors, but the yarn started to dye my bamboo needles, ug!
