for the big kids

It's been so much fun knitting for the babies that I started to worry about the big kids. So last weekend I grabbed some Lopi (actually reclaimed from a failed sweater for an earlier A4A campaign) and made these. I followed the stitch and row counts for my basic mitten pattern, available on the A4A web site (Blogger does not want to link from my phone so I will add the link later when I get home) and they came out just the right size for many teenagers. 

In the mail today -- there is another pair I hope to finish, but I want to make sure these arrive before the deadline.
