little bits of this and that Mitts started

I started to make these mitts yesterday.  I hope to finish them today.  I took a break from the play as my shoulders and arms got hurt the other day shoveling show in our yard.  You know you have a lot of snow in y our yard when you shovel it 5 times in one day .  Then you look at it a few hours later and everywhere you shoveled has a foot of snow again in the yard.  So I shoveled it again the next day and for some reason my right arm went all tingly and numb in some spots like I had pinched a nerve and others had lots of pain like a pulled muscle.
So I did some other things like clean house and spin a little yarn and start a pair of knitted gloves light weight stuff that would not hurt so much.  Which is saying something considering holding the remote control for the TV hurt to the point I could not do it ,  because of its weight go figure.  My arms are almost back to normal and I will go back to sewing on costumes later today.  More info on these gloves I am making them up as I go along ( I am writing it down) they are sock weight yarn that I spun see previous post on that.  And I am using 2 circular knitting needles in size 2 more on the pattern to follow  if you want to knit a pair with sock yarn or your own bits of this and that homespun.  These gloves actually are brighter than they appear in these photos I could not get a good picture today all the natural lighting at the time was a gray morning so not so good.  But I hope you get the idea all the same.  It is interesting to see the different textures the yarn gets because of the different yarns spun into it.
