Two new mittens and a finished scarf

Well, I finished my boyfriends scarf. I sent it to him for valentines day, and he really likes it! I ended up having to block it because the edges kept curling. The blocking worked quite well, so I'm pleased with it overall. Here's the finished version:






Next are the first set of mittens I knit up. I bought the pattern from a local yarn shop. The pattern is called Toasty Warm Double Mitts. They are not done yet, though, because I need to knit the lining. I'm hoping to block them soon and get the lining finished.











Andddddddddd... here's mitten number two. It's a pattern from Interweave Crochet. Thrummed crochet mittens. I love it! It's so clever. I've never seen thrummed crochet mittens before and as soon as I saw the pattern I was so excited.
















As well, I bought Selbuvotter a few days ago, so now I'm waiting for it to be shipped. I imagine it'll be a few weeks to a month before I get it because I ordered it from the US. I'm really excited about it. Well, I hope you enjoyed my knitting today and I'll try to update sooner from now on.
