Mittens for Sue

I have been knitting mittens. Each pair has been different. Each a challenge in pattern and shape. Here is a picture of my latest mittens. They are knit with Noro Silk Garden and a Angora blend by elsebeth lavold from KFI. I cast on 40 sts on #5 ndls. These a big mittens.
A friend asked me to knit here a pair of warm mitts. This is the main reason I knit the pattern so the yarn is double with more angora on the inside on the mittens. The angora will get real fuzzy with the longer floats on the inside to provide additional warmth.
