Da-Dar! I have finally finished the mittens!

There was a big learning curve like 5 needles at a time, and thumb hole made from scrap thread.

Then there was a bit of jigging around with the pattern to get a leaf cuff based on an aran pattern.

My hands were a bit longer than the pattern, so I added a few rows on top of the tree.

Isn’t it typical after this week’s gale force winds and rain that the sun is now out- right when I have a gorgeous pair of mittens to wear. Ah well they can wait until Autumn.
