Twilight Bella's Mittens

They are finished! These awesome mittens are made to look like the ones Bella wears just before being rescued from a car crash by the gorgeous and delicious vampire, Edward. I will be making  another pair in a less hairy wool blend as the alpaca wool seemed to loosed the awesomeness of the cable pattern. These are available at http://www.simondesign.etsy.com!

New things to come...

I'm working on a pattern for the mittens Bella wears in Twilight. Should be finished and listed on Etsy soon!
