Warm hands

We're back home from our Christmas travels. It was a very good Christmas, especially for Owen.
But my Mom and Dad did well too. Here are the mittens and gloves I made for them

Pattern: both patterns are from Ann Budd's The Knitter's Handy Book of Patterns
Yarn: Cascade 220
Needles: size 5 (so they would be extra dense and warm)

Note my dad is also wearing the seed stitch scarf my mom made for him!
