The Warmest Mittens Ever Made

I finally made the time to knit some mittens for myself. Just in time for the dumping of snow that we received the last week of December, my friend Maureen sent me a super easy pattern and I used a 4 ply angora/alpaca yarn to make them. This yarn was made with red Satin Angora fiber from my girls and cream alpaca from my SIL's alpacas. They are super warm.  I've worn them out in the wind and snow and they are the warmest mittens I've ever had.  Next project is a sweater vest but it may take me some time to get myself motivated to start a larger and more time consuming project that is sure to sit and stare at me until I get it finished. LOL
