You obviously peaked too soon, when you kindly knitted up my mittens ☺️

Was just explaining to Child the other day, that when we first lived here, our trains had slam doors and you had to lean out of the window to open them. And I have similar, very fond memories of long train trips with Granny - in my case, Kings Cross up to Yorkshire, with British Rail pea soup in the dining car.

Oh dear… if I peaked too soon does that mean my pair are no good!!!

Not sure I fancy BR pea soup 🤢

I just meant you having to start again twice - I’m sure third time lucky all will be well! I seem to recall the soup was ok - and I was a verrrrrry picky little eater.

And I think it took at least three attempts on yours too and I was never that happy with them 😂

Far as I’m concerned you’re a magician 🪄

Beautiful mitten! I’d have to start those now in time for NEXT winter!

If I can make them you definitely can too. I finished the second one yesterday so once I got myself sorted out they took less than two weeks… although more like two years since my first attempt!
