Smitten
Evidently, my younger brother is head-over-heels in his nonchalant kind of way. I’ve not met this girl, but it is looking increasingly like she might be “related” in the future—So, in an attempt of goodwill and “Hey, look, our family isn’t as crazy as it seems” kind of gesture, I made them a pair of Smittens for Christmas.
I’d do a few things differently if I made them again—but, in all I’m OK with the results for a first attempt. It’s the thought that counts? Right? Here they are all wrapped up. Now, it’s just a matter of actually mailing them.
They are just young enough and certainly in love enough to think this is fun. I hope.

I think they are lovely. All I can say is “very cool”… and plan to make more as my guess is others will want a pair…

Oh, how very romantic….Good job! I think “smitten” couple would die for a pair.
The local blogger meetup you commented about on my site sounds like a lot of fun. I’m in!
My hopefully new house is in Astoria, well ~ a couple of miles out Youngs River Road. We’re still negotiating with the seller. Thanks for your warm good luck wishes…

how is it that we switched blog-posting schedules? anyhow, is this the chica that has been around for a while? i’m all curious.
i do quite like your gift, btw. maybe you’ll be making those for me and someone someday. *sigh*

And, yes… same girl. ~W

that would just be like bying those cute pants because i really am going to lose the weight. and besides, can a guy be ballsy and still wear smittens?

Um, they are selling like hotcakes to somebody—so, I’m guessing real guys would wear them. Especially if it meant they could hold your hand! ~W
