I spun the yarn from Corgi Hill Farm fiber, 5oz Polwarth.
The pattern is Wood Hollow mittens by Kirsten Kapur. I liked this pattern so much, that I immediately cast on for a second pair, also knit from handspun for my Sister.
The fiber was Greenwoodfiberworks, Downton Abbey, Polwarth, 4oz. I've added 2oz of semi solids from Southern Cross Fiber to stretch it.
O.K. two Christmas gifts down, a few more to go. Stay tuned! :o)

You did it! Your family members will surely love their new mittens.
I love it when I find a worthy something or other to make with my handspun.
Great job, very nice mittens! I think your father will love them!
Your mittens are really beautiful!
Love your Dad's mittens. The varigated yarn looks really nice, but then I'm prejudiced toward varigated yarn. :)
The other mittens are pretty too. Wish I lived close so you could make me some.
Hugs,
Sharon
