We're taking a little road trip this weekend to go to a football game...and shocker...while it's 50 degrees during the week, by Sunday, it's supposed to be sleeting/snowing/raining. Great. So, I'm trying to hurriedly whip together a pair of the Dashing gloves from Knitty.com (http://knitty.com/ISSUEspring07/PATTdashing.html) for hubby to help to keep him warm in the cold since he only has one pair of gloves (store bought) that don't really allow him to use his digits to oh, hold a cup, or do anything else that may need even the slightest bit of dexterity!
Sooooo...last night I cast on one of the Dashing mits and was able to get that one finished before I hit the sack. So now, just this quick little post as a mini-break from the furious knitting as I work to complete the second glove.
By the way, I love the designer of this glove, Cheryl Niamath. She's the same designer that did the Fetching pattern on Knitty.com (http://www.knitty.com/ISSUEsummer06/PATTfetching.html) which I've made 3 times now! :) Great patterns with great cable details!
P.S. Hubby will get his first experience "modeling" when I complete the second mit...ha! we'll see how that goes!

I always thought that the Dashing mittens looked like a fun knit, and I really want to make a pair for myself some day. Did you like the pattern? Can't wait to see pics of yours!
