Halfway to wrist comfort

One down, one to go! Given that I knit about 40% of this one operating on the assumption that I had a different number of stitches than I actually did (don't ask me how I managed to cast on two extra stitches and not notice), I'm a wee bit worried that the second one will not be quite identical to this one. But I guess as long as the proportions are basically the same, it oughta work. Besides, I don't really see them being worn around town much. They're more of a working on the computer kind of thing. Speaking of which, my hands are so cold right now that I am seriously considering keeping these for myself. Or at least making another pair, which I suppose would be the kind thing to do, considering how excited Jessie sounded about these. Also, these knit up so fast, that I foresee several people receiving pairs for Christmas. Basically, if you have hands and need to use them when it's cold, you might be getting a pair of these from me. OK, let me clarify, if all of the above is true and I know you and usually give you Christmas presents, you might be getting a pair. Just in case the rest of you were getting excited (yeah, right). I'm not that fast of a knitter!

The Harlot posted today about how much trouble the math was giving her for her lace corset project. She claims she's not good at math. But Steph, if it makes you feel any better, I can't even count right (see above reference to extra stitches). And let's not even talk about how much trouble I had figuring out about the thumb gusset once I realized I had too many stitches. And since it's 2x2 ribbing, I also had to figure out make a wild guess about which stitches to knit and which ones to purl and still end up on the right kind of stitch at the end of the gusset. But at least it's wearable and warm and vewy vewy soft, right?
