Knitted Hand Warmers

Ta Da - my knitted hand warmers
Thanks to Jules Dolly and Henny Designs I now have my own hand warmers finally knitted up.  Using some wool I picked up in the sale at Hobby Craft last year (I knew it would come in handy for something) this was a relatively quick knit - cast on 39 stitches and knit a row, pearl a row until your heart is content.  My hand warmers have turned out to be quite a snug fit and I think I prefer them this style than the slouchy look. 

Feeling inspired, I visited the Sheep Shop in St Annes this afternoon and bought some really nice wool to make a simple cowl/snood.  I'll be starting on that as soon as I have had my tea - I really know how to live it up on a Saturday night :)
