\"Thank
Thank You, Krystal!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

A dual-purpose post. The Lesser Purpose is to update you on the progress of the second Frog Princess mitt. As you will see, I’m a good way along the arm. I’m not stressing about the pace of work this time, and since it is the most interesting thing I have on needles at the moment, I’m making fair progress.<\/p>\n

The Greater Purpose is to thank Krystal<\/a> (Krystalclear2006<\/a> on Rav) for her awesome gift of stitch markers. These are the first fancy markers I’ve ever owned, and they are great. I really see them and my error rate dropped dramatically after I started using them on this project. So without additional commentary, here they are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
