The other day I over-dyed some yummy alpaca, in 2 fun whimsical colors, a bright green and a fun orange.
I decided to knit mittens with the yarns. I sat down, and just let the yarns take me wherever they wanted. Sure enough, stripes appeared. I thought of the Cheshire Cat. Then a row of hearts for the Queen of Hearts magically appeared! I am back on stripes, but who knows, during my adventures in Knittingland, I might come across a rabbit in a hurry, or a mad hatter...

How adorable! (Though I'd still have opted for pumpkins!)
Thanks Sharon!

Love the colors, love the thoughts which generated the pattern. The mittens make you feel happy to looking at them.
