A single little mitten

Sooooo....here's my half done mitten.

At this point I'm a little stuck. I'm not sure if I should keep going. I need Bugman to come home from school so I can size it. I think it's gonna be too small for him, he's got extra long fingers like his mama, but it'll fit some orphan somewhere, right?

The yarn is my favorite, Malabrigo 100% wool, but it's the softest stuff you'll ever touch. It's like a cloud, I swear...not that I've actually touched a cloud, but you know... The first time I bought a ball, a variegated red, pink and white, I didn't know what to do with it, so I'd occasionally just take it out and pet it. Eventually it became a hair do-dad that I'm going to have to frog (that knitter speak for rip out...rip it, rip it...get it? hah! knitters are funny! really!) because it's too big for a hair do-dad and I've never actually worn it.

The second ball, a variegated blue, became an ipod case for my mother-in-law and a pair of wrist warmers. Well now, to be honest, it's not yet a pair...it's a single wrist warmer waiting for my lazy bum to make the match. That single wrist warmer should hook up with the single sock I made and tie me up until I make their mates.
