Õunapuuõite sõrmikud / Apple Blossom Gloves

Selle paari valmimise tee  on pikk. Esimese kinda kudusin eelmisel kevadel, võtsin "Meite Muhu mustrid" ette ja hakkasin innuga mustrit kokku panema, Teadlikult olin inspireeritud Heli kootud sukkadest ja alateadlikult raamatust "Me Before You", mis mul veel öökapil lebas. Hoog oli sees ja kinnas sai ruttu valmis ...aga tulemus ei meeldinud mulle. Arvan, et vits oleks pidanud teisevärviline olema,  aga sellist kinnast ei saa ju harutada.

Nii ta seisma jäigi, tõstsin seda korvis edasi-tagasi kuni lõpuks teise juurde kududa otsustasin. Olin enda peale päris pahane, sest polnud esimese kinda kudumise ajal täpselt märkmeid teinud, st kohandatud mustrid olin küll kuhugi välja joonistanud, näiteks õunapuuõite motiivi tegin natuke väiksemaks, aga kasvatamisi ja kahandamisi mitte. Lisaks selgus kurb tõsiasi, et mu kudumiskäekiri on vahepeal muutunud, esimene kinnas oli mul kootud 1.5mm vardaga aga nüüd aasta hiljem pidin sama koehtiheduse saamiseks vardad 1.25 vastu välja vahetama.
Seega, tee märkmeid ja koo kindad üksteise järel!

It took me long time to finish this pair. 
First glove is from last spring, I was very exited to create my own pattern, browsed through the book "Meite Muhu mustrid" and was inspired by stockings seen in Heli's blog and by the book "Me before you" which was still on my nightstand. The glove was ready fast but I did not like the result so much -  the braid should have been different color but you can't unravel knit like this. So, I put it aside.

Few weeks ago I decided to knit missing one. I was really angry with myself as I didn't make any real notes of increases and decreases. There were only few scribbles of patterns. Also, it came out that my tension has changed during last year, the first glove was knitted with 1.5mm but for the second one I had to use 1.25. So, remember to take notes and knit the mitts directly one after another! 

Ilusat kevadet!
Have a nice spring!
