Fingerless mitts for lena

Finally I got 1 item done on my Xmas list. I hope lena will love wearing these. Although, I wish I had enough time to knit her a shawl or a pair of socks to go with it. No time though, I've moved on to finishing Vi's leg warmers. Man, those things take a while to do. They have been sitting in my basket for close to a year now. Meanwhile, I've also managed to squeeze in the black scarf for my gf's son who came and asked me very nicely to knit him a black scarf. After I told him yes I will, he rummaged through my yarn stash looking to see if I really had black yarn! I felt like a beginner knitter as I was casting on for the scarf though. I did not start out knitting a scarf or a pot holder though, I was very ambitious and wanted to start out with a cardigan.  Needless to say, the unfinished project is in a drawer somewhere since I am now a yarn snob and cannot bring myself to knit with acrylic yarn. Oh how naive I was...
