The Fair Isle Bug
After finishing the Fair Isle sock that I worked on a week or two ago, I am officially bitten by the Fair Isle bug. I immediately moved on to a pair of fingerless mitts.
The second mitt is done as well, but of course I can't photograph both of my hands at the same time, so here it is:

I can hardly express how much I loved knitting these mitts. The color pattern is simple and easy to follow, but creates a really nice complex look.
I've already got the pattern all ready to go and have listed it in my shop.

In addition to the colors I used for my mitts, I've got one with greens:
One with browns and yellow:
And another with purples and blues:
Although I'm rather itching to make another pair of these mitts, I'm sure I'll move on to another design. The Fair Isle Bug has definitely bitten me!
