No Will PowerLast night, while deliberately ignoring the languishing swatches for the Aran, I cast on for a mitten.
I'm not even really sure who this is for- I think for my sister-in-law for Christmas. She lives in Seattle, but maybe with the cold/dampness she might wear it. My other west-coast friends live in southern california, and even I can't justify giving them wool winter wear. OOOOOO 60s... BRRRR! ;) But basically I wanted to make some mittens. And then some gloves. And then some more. And, to make matters worse, I succumbed to ANOTHER crafty project. Again, I managed to pointedly ignore the forlorn glances from the abandoned bulletin board, and head to the local craft store. Perhaps you noticed the little beaded stitch marker on the mittens? Well, you see, I had these beads. So I got some pins, and some split rings, and took my needlenose pliers in hand... 
I still have about 10 more to make before I use up all of the jump rings I bought. But since I still have plenty of pins and beads, perhaps I'll splurge and spend another 50 cents on more jump rings. I mean, I really should try and use up most of the beads, shouldn't I? Cricket got fed up with all my craftiness, and demanded that I prioritize:
