small gift knits

I'm enjoying the last few weeks of flowers before the frost. Here's a few finished objects from the past two weeks hanging out in the front yard:

Fingerless Pomatomus mittens, a 2007 holiday gift: 2-socks-on-circs, Fiesta Boomerang, US 3's.
Man, did these seem to take for-ev-er... Another holiday gift:

Love the P. mitts - I seem to remember my fingers hurting a little with that pattern.

Beautiful! The mitts are especially wonderful.

Pretty impatiens, pretty Pomatom-mitts! Nice mention on L&V blog from your KAL post, too! :-)

I have recently discovered the potential pitfalls of family members reading your blog, in that it's hard to be doing stealth knittting that you want to show the world! Luckily, apparently my father rarely reads my blog; my mother does, though, and professes to enjoy it very much.

Yeah, that's what I noticed, too: Two things knit at once take f.o.r.e.v.e.r.!

Very pretty! Your mitts almost look like flowers themselves. I heard that it's supposed to stay this abnormally warm for at least another two weeks. With all the rain we got in the last month or so, I have way more flowers now than I ever did over the summer. so weird!

Sorry, D. I already hired a skywriter.

Those pomatomus mitts are really nice.

The holidays are coming? Can I just have the gifts you've already made then? Lovely!
