I think I need a hand model...

Dear Shayne,

I know I've said before that I need a head model to model the hats that I make, but now I think I also need a hand model. I have a really hard time taking photos of my hands... especially both of them.

Yes, yes... there's self-timer. But really... if I can't take a decent photo while the camera is in my hands, why should I expect it to do a stellar job all by itself?

For now, I give up. Here are some crappy photos of some awesome fingerless mitts:
Fuzzy angora mitts

I got this yarn at a wonderful little yarn store in SF called Art Fibers. The yarn is called "Bitty Bunz" (hee hee) and you can read more about it on their site right here (where they have also taken better photos of it).

It's a gorgeous soft, fluffy angora blend. Mmmmmmm!

Here is the photo that I tried to take to show off the yarn itself. I pretty much failed. Oh, well. At least you can see how fuzzy it is. Fuuuzzzy!
Fuzzy.

You'll have to take my word for it: these mitts are de-lish!!

love,
kelly

It's like having a pet on each hand :)

Maybe they need googly eyes :)

But then I couldn't rub them all over my face, enjoying their soft-y goodness...

Erm... not that I do that or anything. No, no... never...

Guess what dumbass goes through the yarn department at the craft store rubbing different skeins on her face?
