Comments:

This was my third pair of handwarmers made using this pattern. I made these as a slightly late Christmas present for my mother in law.
I really like the colors of this yarn, but after knitting with it for a long time (as I did on this scarf) it started to really irritate my fingertips. It could definitely stand to be a little bit softer.
