FO: Lithuanian mittens

CO: December 30th, 2010

BO: January 2nd, 2011

Yarn: BC Shetlandsuld about 75 yards and Kauni Wool 8/2 Effektgarn about 125 yards.

Needles: 2.5mm circulars

Notes: These have been finished for a while, but as they were a present and my last parcel to the US took ages to arrive, I waited till I got to deliver these in person. Again, I used some motifs from one Lithuanian knitting booklet and combined them to make a personalised design. I can't believe how little yarn is needed for mittens like these. I think I can get at least 2 other pairs out of that one Kauni and BC Shetlandsuld skein.
