Tanis Takes on Mittens: Part 1
July 24, 2008
Although the thermometer outside is still in summer-mode, our offices have been cooling down to fall temperatures.
Being the yarn nerd that I am, I get particularly excited when we hit fall and the cooler temps. I love tweeds, thick cashmeres, wool from far-off places and autumnal color palettes. By the time we get to the fall issue, I’m ready to kiss the cotton and lightweight yarns goodbye and welcome the worsteds and bulky with open arms.

We’ve received a number of emails regarding this pattern, so we thought we’d post a clarification to make all that stitching a little smoother. Here is a post from Technical Coordinator, Lisa Buccellato:
