I just finished up a pair of mitts to match my new slippers! I love fingerless gloves and mitts, but they are always problematic with my Apple watch. I created a little window in the left mitt, so I can still access my watch screen while I wear them.

Cozy Silk Slippers & Mitts to fit with Apple Watch
Been feeling a little under the weather lately, and a friend pointed out that I should try to be good to myself, and rest up. So I put aside my monster afghan crochet project, and whipped up a cuddly pair of silk slippers just for me. The pattern is called Silk Mer-Slippers by Miranda Nippert. It was originally designed for Darn Good Yarn's Silk Roving Worsted Yarn in a colorway reminiscent of mermaids, and utilizes a shell stitch, hence the name Mer-Slippers. I used the same yarn in Crimson Fire instead, because I had 5 skeins of it on hand. This project busted nearly 2 skeins of it from my stash! The pattern is very quick; I did the first slipper Thursday night while watching tv, and the second on Friday afternoon, while curled up with some GBBO on Netflix. Since I'm still feeling tired, I plan to spend the afternoon on the couch again, and might make a pair of fingerless gloves to match it. Or I might nap. :D
