Prynhawn da! (Good afternoon!) And welcome to this week's WIP Wednesday!
And yes, it's now afternoon by the time I got around to writing this, but, it's still Wednesday, so that counts, right?
This weeks WIP is something I started just yesterday -- a pair of Spiralling Star Mittens. They're actually to barter with one of my friends who does video work. The deal is, I make him mittens, he helps with the filming and setup for my upcoming Youtube channel. (I'm finding I really do need a camera-person to make sure my hands stay in frame while I'm filming tutorials!)
So I've got the mittens in my new yarn bowl that I got from Patina Studios at the Woodstock Fleece Festival (there is a post forthcoming about my adventures there),

Yarn is an *80/20 BFL/Nylon blend in the colourway "Work Jeans" from Crooked Kitchen Yarn's *Etsy Store. This yarn is lovely! I have a particular weakness for BFL/Nylon blends, since they wear so well, and this yarn, so far, is keeping with that promise! My friend is the one who picked the colourway (since they're for him, he does, of course, get veto power).

And it also seems that this particular yarn (or maybe it's the yarn bowl) is cat-approved, as well! While I was trying to take a photo, this happened first! Our two cats were quite content there! They did of course, refuse to look at the camera despite my attempts (because they're cats and enjoy being contrary, I think!) But, no mittens (or yarn) was harmed; they're usually pretty good yarn cats. They've only ever really made a tangle of my skeins once. Though they do sometimes hunt skeins of yarn, if the yarn isn't put away. But they don't untangle it, just hunt it.
Well, that's it for today in this corner of the internet! Stay tuned for more WIP's (and hopefully even a few FO's soon!)
