HV homework completed

I'm done with my pair of HV mittens! I even washed them, so now they are ready to use (hopefully not needed until the fall). The homework was to design and make your own pattern. It was difficult because I wanted to design the "best pattern" ever. What style? What color combination? what....?

At first I wanted something white with red embroderies but it turned out too tricky to turn the delicate pattern into knitting.

Then I looked at my knitting bag and decided to get a matching pair of mittens.

First a swatch and the first mitten:



Then number two is knitted:

Ready to be used :-)
