Thrums!

Kimmie Cornerstone has a fantastic way of combining my luscious, soft Lipstick Mother Fiber Bluefaced Leicester/Angora roving with her lovely worsted hand spun yarn.  She enhances her mitten with thrums!  Thrums are little tufts of fiber that are pulled through the knitting leaving fuzzy ends inside.  With wear your warm, moist hands actually felt down the bushy tufts and construct a flat felted lining inside the mitten.  As it is the warmth and softness is intoxicating.  So far Kim has only constructed one of these Lipstick thrum mittens.  I sure hope she finishes the second mitten as I might make her an offer she can't refuse.
