I should have been in bed hours ago!  But, I was finishing up a Christmas present.  The thing is, I've made up a bunch of different items for this someone.  I had it all planned out, it was going to be a set - a cowl and matching mitts.  But, I guess I'm somewhat of a perfectionist, because upon completing each item, I felt like I could improve on it.  So, there are a fair few pairs of mitts floating around that have nothing wrong with them other than my concern that they aren't long enough, short enough, small enough, big enough, etc.  I'm sure we all know what it's like to either make or purchase a gift for someone new and have that worry of "will they like it?"  So, I was going to make up one more pair (pattern 03) tonight before I headed off to bed (or at least get a pair started).  When I went for the yarn, I couldn't find it.  I had just used it and know there is plenty left for a couple of pairs of gloves.  Plus, I find it very odd that this 1 skein of yarn is not with the others (?).  So, I have taken it as a sign to give her the first pair that I made.  It's not like there's anything wrong with them - if they were a different color I'd want to keep them for myself.  Now that I've gotten that off my chest, I guess I should consider getting some sleep . . . .
