Chilly Country Walks

The snow hasn't melted much here in Suffolk.  It's my day off and I have just returned from a VERY bracing walk around the fields with Scottie.  Note to self; buy or knit some proper gloves (fingerless mittens are not doing the job) and invest in a good ordance survey map so I can get some idea of where I am!!


I have 'queued' the Bella Mittens by Marielle Henault on Ravelry; lovely long cabled gloves knitted in a chunky yarn, I might try Debbie Bliss Rialto Chunky .  They should definitely keep my hands warm, its just a question of whether I would finish them before this cold spell is over!!
