More mittens

I've knit mittens. Somebody will get them for his/her birthday, so I won't show the monogrammed side of the mitten. It's the Helloyarn pirate mittens knit in Létt Lopi, only one skein of each colour. Gauge is 22, so they're slightly bigger than in the pattern, but that was the point. Fun and quick to knit, but I prefer traditional motifs rather than pirates. Good thing they're not for me...

Hey!
The mittens look great!

What wonderful mittens! I especially love how you put the year on the back of the mittens.

They're great!! Arrrr!! I would be over the moon with a personal gift like this (initials and year, so cool!)

I think they're wonderful, and will definitely knit a pair for myself soon! I'm sure the receiver will love them!

Beautiful mittens you have made.

Sqwee! Nice mits. Anywat, to answer the questions you left on my blog: I used blue sky alpaca organic cotton and you do have to knit a bit tight but as long as you get gauge on the pattern it should be fine.
