Mother's Day Fingerless Mitts

I designed these fingerless mitts just for Mom for Mother's Day this year.  They were fun to do and came out as well as I had hoped.  I love the design on the back of the hand with the beads.  I also like how the palm designed turned out as well.

I took a "formula" for making fingerless mitts and a couple pattern ideas from a book and began writing.

I finished knitting them on Mother's Day and got them into the mail Tuesday afternoon after sharing them with my friends at the local yarn shop during our Tuesday social knitting time.  Mom got them in the mail today and is very happy with them and reports they fit very well (something I was a bit worried about when making them).

Happy Mother's Day, Mom!  I love you :)
