It is offical!!

You can be the first to know.
I am telling the world this, and you will be the first to know.
Okay here we go, I am going to tell ya, now.
Okay now I really am going to tell you what I have finally figured out.


I can't knit mittens! Ya that is my big bad secret. I officially suck at knitting mittens. But if you think about it hands are a really strange shape and try to wrap fabric around them is not to easy. Okay enough excuses for me now.
But really I have tried knitting in the round, flat, every stitch you can imagine and I am not happy with any results.
So here are the ugly, horrible, I hate mittens.
First is kinda my fault I tried to make the cuff longer to make sure they covered her little bitty arms, so maybe that pattern may happen again in the future when I don't have mittens any more.


So next up is the same pattern and instead of knitting every row I did a stocking stitch to make it look nicer and I guess that was my problem, cause they are so super short and wide looking.
AHHHH I think I am going to scream.


Okay so after typing this and explaining my pictures I realize that I haven't tried to make the pattern as writing. Well maybe I should try that before I completely give up on mittens. Ya I just might have to do that. So check back and there may be an update on the mitten nightmare I am going through.
