For a Good Time....

I haven't knit all day~ super tired and busy, busy, busy moving yarn. A few weeks ago I was kinda upset over the gauge issues and decided to knit with some special yarn. Oh sure all yarn is special but this stuff was handspun purchased via Ebay argh 7 years ago or so. Every time I fondled it I thought 'too nice' But I was down so figured what the heck~ knit a big ol square and rip it. I deserve too nice yarn yes? Well I couldn't find it. Anywhere. I have spent the past 2 weeks looking for this yarn which I saw just a few months ago so I know its in the house along with Siberian Winter grrrrrrrr. Anyway I picked up some other inferior ebay handspun which I totally do not like. I am not gonna trash the seller but it was marketed as super soft sock yarn and is at least worsted weight. And not soft. And full of VM. Very icky. I figured dulaan it at least but I couldn't subject some poor child to the knitted fabric. Really it was horrible. I spent a week looking and gauging and getting more and more frustrated til last Sunday evening I CO a kitlet for some mittens. All I got to say is:
