A Problem and a Solution
April 17th, 2008 | 1 Comment
If you remember, I originally designed these booties to alleviate some work-related grumpiness. I don’t know if it’s just coincidence that I always choose to knit these booties when I’ve been having a rough time, or if I’ve somehow invented baby booties with sanity-restoring properties.
In which case, I should totally market them to harried mothers and become filthy rich in the process.
Solution: Generosity

My dilemma about the differently-sized cuffs has been solved, in much the way that Tamar suggested. I wasn’t sure it would work, as I have teeny tiny hands and wrists. Anyone with smaller hands than me likely has an age in the single digits.
I knit semi-regularly with a bunch of fellow grad students. Last weekend, we had a round of Cinderella-esque (or O. J. Simpson-esque) mitten-trying, and one girl did turn out to have smaller hands than me. She will be getting a pair of Anemoi Mittens, courtesy my Continuing Problems with Gauge.
