Raspberry Mittens

This great, basic mitten pattern is from Ravelry.  After knitting the stripes in the ribbing on the first mitten I decided it needed a few in the hand part as well and so I added them.

The main yarn color made me think of raspberries (not that any are ripe yet--that won't happen until the end of July or beginning of August) and thus, the name.

I listened to the audiobook The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larsson while knitting these mittens.
