I finished these mittens earlier this week, I used to knit on them when traveling by plane or train. They are for myself, and I enjoyed very much doing something without any connection to sales or studies. The patttern is really a sweater pattern, which I took out of a magazine many years ago, so I had to change it a bit to fit the mittens. The colored fields are embroidered.
I got very inspired by a link posted in Hobbyboden, which I would like to share, it is really worth to take a look at (it is in English). It contains the most creative and sometimes surrealistic knitting I have ever seen!
I got an award from Birgitta earlier this week, thank you so much! I would like to pass it on to Sikas søm- og strikkekrok, Alette Siri Ane, Sonja, Sue, Lynette, and Leigh.

Hej
SvarSlettVilka läckra vantar du stickat. Helt underbara. Jag förstår om du vill ha dem själv. Det skulle jag också velat. Ha en fortsatt bra vecka.

The mittens are simply wonderful. I wish I could knit like that! You knitting skill is staggering and I say that from experience. I recently tried to knit a very simple mitten for my daughter and after many evenings of work I ended up with something doll sized...they are really hard to do! I wish you lived close enough so that I could touch them, ahhhh so far away!
SvarSlettCharlotte, thank you so much! It's encouraging to be thought of for this award, especially considering how hectic my life is right now with the move.
SvarSlettA agree with the others, the mittens are fabulous!
Love the mittens! And also love the you adapted a sweater pattern to create them. That's wonderful!

Thank you for the award!! (What does it say....I couldn't figure out how to translate it!)
SvarSlettYour mittens are gorgeous!! I love the hearts on the thumbs!
I looked through that link and somehow ended up at a pattern for knitted lobsters. Since my nieces will be visiting Maine this summer, I think I might need to knit up a few lobsters! So thanks for pointing me in the right direction!
