Last week I was gripped by a sudden boredom with plain-old-ribbing and needed to try something new. I think this came after knitting the last batch of mittens, and is aided by the fact that I have to wait for more yarn to come to me from KnitPicks. So I'm experimenting with alternatives to ribbing. And here we have the pleated ruff mittens. With 2x2 ribbing beneath the pleats, so I haven't completely escaped.
These are fun mits. It's really too bad they're too small for me.
Beautiful job! Oh how I wish I could knit. Lucky kids.

Oh, that is so cute! I saw a knitter here in Sacramento that did that to her beanies- also very cute.
