The magic of blocking

The magic of blocking

Left mitten is blocked, right mitten is unblocked.

Finally finished these songbird mittens for my mom’s 60th birthday ???? Took a moment to admire the difference blocking makes, especially for a beginner like me. This is my first stranded colorwork project and my first go at mittens, brought to you by the magic of 9” circulars and many, many, many rounds of frogging the entire thing and starting over ????‍???? I am feeling extremely accomplished!
