Yarr, scurvy land lubbers. We pirates keep be keepin' arr hands warm with mittens

Both Bones mittens are now complete.  I had some obvious issues with the suggested beads being too big to knit comfortably in pattern, but after strenuous and forceful blocking I think even Blackbeard himself would be accepting of them into his treasure haul.  Ok, maybe they are a bit ‘emo’ for Blackbeard, but I reckon Johnny Depp would be all over them…

I’m satisfied with these and they are now going into my little box of knitted Christmas treasure which I am going to bury before I am tempted to put these on myself,  to keep my scurvy hands warms whilst I swab the decks (or clean the oven, whichever task presents itself first).
