Recycled Mittens

I finished these mittens about a week ago. They are super warm! The pattern came out of an old Knit It! magazine, I think it was the first issue. The yarn is recycled from a sweater I bought at Goodwill a long time ago. I unraveled the sweater and have found many uses for the thick wool. I made a couple shrugs for my sisters and now these mittens. It's hard to see in the pictures but there is a simple cable running up the middle of the mitten. I added the fuzzy yarn in the cuff to match my scarf. This was a great stash project!
