You know how the tailor's kids never have shoes? Well, this crafter never seems to be able to make warm pretties for herself. This year i decided to change all that. I found two lovely balls of variegated worsted weight that almost match. With those two balls of coordinating yarn I made a beret and fingerless mitts.

The patterns, as always can be found on Ravelry
Beret: http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/slouch-hat-w262
Fingerless mitts: http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/owl-mitts

I am not 100% pleased with how the cabling turned out on one of the mitts (I swear I followed the directions too!) so, I may pull out the bind off row, go back and rework it. I also didn't make the seed stitch tab for the beret (I didn't see the point, really).
