Kiila & Endpaper Mitts

I’ve gotten to the end of Clue 2 on my first Kiila sock:

I was planning on starting the 2nd sock;  however, I’ve turned my focus to study prior to the workshop:

and to my Endpaper mitts (looks better on):

With the Endpaper mitts not only am I practicing my stranding (two hands!) but I learned a new cast on, the Italian tubular cast on.  Nifty.   I found this video on YouTube that made the cast on immediately clear.
