Autumn mittens

These were a commission from a blues lover! They're a custom pattern that one day I'll write down! The yarn is a mix of wool, silk, angora and mohair from South Africa that I have to admit was a bit of a disappointment. When I read the label I had high hopes for gorgeous, different yarn but I must confess, it knitted up into nice but unremarkable fabric. 

Comfy gloves though! I hope she likes them.
