give a hoot

I just finished these mittens for Sarah, my mother-in-law. The palms are stockinette, and the owl cable patterns rest on the back of the hand. This was my first knitting project with a non symmetrical stitch pattern. Consequently, they required a bit more concentration than past projects, and I had to rip out several rows from the left mitten. Not easy to follow a pattern while watching a 2 year old.
