One of the benefits of being home is you get to knit all the time. Two days in bed mean that I finished one fingerless glove and started the second. Really like this pattern, but it is the yarn which is so yummy. I bought it at Christmas last year in Florida but its a Welsh Collinette yummy yarn. I've lost the ball band but I think its called Jitterbug. It travelled from Wales to Florida and back to the UK. This summer it went on vacation with me to Egypt; last month it went to Tahoe and Chicago; and now its back in the UK.



The pattern is called Porphyria by Cissy Black. I got it off the web when I was home for Christmas. However; when I went to put a link to the pattern to give some props to the designer I find Porphiria is a disease as well as a glove pattern.

Knits up nice and springy, I think its meant to be a sock yarn. I'm sure Lawyer Shira will find a use for them when they make there way back to Chicago! Thanks for the hospitality, Shira and Jeremy!
