~Muddars = Swedish for cuff. I love making beaded muddars. For some reason, the first cuff knit up so well, the US size O needles and beads flew into a beautiful cuff. The second cuff was pure torture to knit. I admit to tons of cussing and ribbiting while doing this cuff. What the heck? Ok, truth be told I finished the first cuff a few years ago. But, DONE! And, given to sister Barb. She mentioned that she needed some new fingerless gloves and told her I was finishing a pair just for her. She told me that she loves them warts and all!
She gave them a “test run” on our hike Tuesday. She’s trying to key out the the birds we saw on our hike into Ramona’s Grassland Habitat Preserve.

BTW, I got the t-shirt for her when visiting Wildseed Farms which is a wildflower farm located in Fredericksburg, TX. The shirt has beautiful butterflies on both the front and the back. It’s really a deep purple. Don’t you love digital cameras which turn purple into a royal blue color?
I’ve added our name to Finished Object’s Friday at Tami’s Ami’s site. Visit to see other wonderful Finished Objects.
