birthday mittens

Here are some saucy-colored mittens for my bright color loving friend's birthday. I pretty much made them up as I went along, knitting in the round and trying them on for size. Its a fun route but you should take notes as you knit along, if you want the second mitten to match the first! They are knit from Rowan cork color #50 (orange) which is unfortunately discontinued, and some fun green slubby stuff I got at Habu textiles.
