Fiddlehead Mittens

Yeey!  I have a finish to show you.... although it's not quilting.... I started these Fiddlehead Mittens in December I think, and finished them today.  Well, I am supposed to knit another mitten as a lining- but then they will be too small for me I think, so I'm going to start using them, and then I can knit lining mittens later if I want to.
Our Quilt Guild, Fjellquilten has a UFO challenge this year, so I decided to dig out the rest of my ufo's and wisp's today, and how depressing...... I thought I had close to 4-5 UFO's and I was SOOOO wrong..... My list ended up with no less than 23 items- how in the world did that happen??  And I still have one box to check, and I know it contains 24 star blocks from a swap a couple of years back.... and probably a few other things as well.  Anyhow- I took pictures of everything and made a list for myself.  I will try to finish most of these ufo's before 2011 is over- and I KNOW I will be adding more new projects to my WIP list as well- I am NOT going to work only on those UFO's!

Wish me luck... I might just need it.....LOL
Thank you for stopping by, I really appreciate it!

  1. underbara vantar :) Önskar dig lycka till med dina projekt. Något sådant skulle man nog göra så man ser "svart på vitt" vad som måste göras innan något annat påbörjas..

  3. I love seeing your UFOs, and I like your idea of adding a photo instead of just a list because that is a better reminder. Looks like there are a lot of us that have some sort of BOM that we've collected and not finished. Beautiful mittens, too!!!

  4. WOW! I also like the idea of a photo next to the UFO's. I should do the same with ALL the kits I have sitting in my cupboard to make.... now that would be very embarrassing!...cheers!

  6. Du er så flink til å strikke votter. Driver med et par, men sliter med mønsterstrikkinga. Den blir bølket. Og du er modig som tør telle UFOene dine. Har laget en liste, og skal nå plukke ut nen. Ha en fin dag.

  7. I love your mittens!

    My guild did a UFO challenge as well. Funnily enough I had the same reaction as you (some of the same UFOs too!). The pictures are a wonderful idea. It's much harder to forget a project if you have a picture in front of you.

  8. I love your mittens. Good luck on your UFO-list, it's a good idea to put a pitcure next to it as reminder. I have joined a UFO-challenge. I alredy crossed one UFO off

  11. Vottene er flotte! Og du har en fresk ufo-liste, mye artig å velge i her (jeg tør ikke se på min ufo-haug. Den er heldigvis spredd litt utover sånn at jeg ikke ser alt på en gang) :)
