Mitten stall again!

I am very sad. So sad I didn’t post this last night when I discovered it.
I still don’t have enough roving to finish my mittens. I realise that yes, I was making the thrums pretty big, but then, I had a whole new clump of roving, as well as what was left over from the first mit. I guess the thrums were extra-super big, because yesterday night I lifted up one clump of roving, expecting to find more underneath, but no. I’d used it.

I have just enough (according to my kitchen scale) to finish the body of the mit, but none for the thumb. I suppose I need to rip it all out and re-do the thrums. I really don’t want to do that a second time. I may turn it inside out and pick bits of the big thrums. Timewise, ripping would probably be more sensible, but this method makes me feel better. blargh.

Well, at least my hands will be super-puffy-warm
