Fuzzy Wuzzy was a...

mitten!

I have had a few good yarns hanging around lately, and finally, there was a lull in my knitting.  (?? Lull?  In the knitting?  Inconceivable.)

The soft creamy brown is Elsebeth Lavold Angora.  This is a funny yarn, a quiet yarn.  It sits there, on the store shelves, peacefully resting.  Rather like its source, the Angora rabbit, it sits quietly, not hiding, but just waiting for someone to notice it.  

For all that is is a quiet yarn, it is not insubstantial.  It is solid, stalwart yarn, though as I wear them, the soft soft soft feeling may grow stronger.  I expect the angora will bloom the more these are used.  It will be a really nice mitten.  

The rest will be made out of this.  

More angora, this time Fleece Artist's Peter Rabbit.  

From here on in, the mitten will appear more like a Mrs Beetons wrist warmer than a mitten cuff.  Because the cuff is knit from the ruffly bit to the upper cuff, the mittens ready had to be ready.  When the 2 ruffly layers of cuff are knit together, the mitten need to be right there too. 

There will be beads.  Simple, clear glass, silver lined beads, to add a bit of sparkle and flash, but in a classy, ladylike sort of way.

I think that is it.  That is what I have been looking for from these soft fuzzy yarns: a delicate ruffly ladylike air with a side of practical.
