Blue Monday

I have been wanting to participate in Blue Monday and in my typical fashion, I think of it on every day BUT Monday. And then I miss it. Today, I remembered! Yippee!

My intention was to post blue mittens. I am totally mitten obsessed lately. Plain, felted, stranded, thrummed, embellished.  All of them. My plan was to show my own blue mitten progress, but dark and gloomy was the color of the day, so I took my obsession to flickr and this is what I came up with. More mitten inspiration, and all of it blue.

1. Two pairs of mittens, 2. Chevalier Mittens, 3. Blue Autumn Mitts, 4. Thrummed Mittens, 5. Knitting the Blues, 6. Flower Mittens, 7. blue felted mitten, 8. mittens linocut, 9. Posing blue mittens ;), 10. embellished mittens, 11. Blue, felted mittens., 12. Fiddlehead Mittens, 13. Meida's Mittens, 14. Let It Snow Icy blue Mitten cards, 15. Blue-White Mittens

2010. Twelve. So my UFO smackdown, while still in full swing and going fairly well, is getting slowed down by my stash smackdown. I cast on for two different mittens in the last two days. Blue ones. I think that tonight I will work on the sock. Back to UFO smackdown.

Beautiful collage. I often think of stash smack down and finishing smack down as one and the same. I'm not adding anything new!

This is so inspiring. Ingrid is sitting here asking me when I am going to make her mittens: "Soon!"

I loved those mittens you showed me last night, Terry. Especially the ones that have the picot bottom! I so need to work on my unfinished basket!

Beautiful or should I say BLUE-tiful? I always love the collages - they make happy knitting even happier!
