After several frogs, I changed the yarn from a skein to a yarn cake hoping that the yarn would be tricked into thinking it was a different yarn that wanted to be lacy arm warmers. It’s acrylic and tricking reasoning with it should be easy.

See? Now doesn’t this look like yarn that wants to be lacy armwarmer fingerless mitts?

The Sword of Gryffindor Mitts look gorgeous but the pattern is stretching my abilities. This is a good thing, but I often wish patterns weren’t quite so vague. I know that everything can’t be explained in a pattern, there simply isn’t room, but oy… the vagueness. It burns.

Thankfully, I have a good knit group that can help me out.
