FO: Courtney's mittens

The extra-long thumbs were bothering me, so the other day I undid the seams and took off 2 rows from each thumb so they look a little less mutant. I also made an I-cord to connect the mittens. I don't have a picture with the I-cord, but you can at least see the new and improved thumbs.

The mittens didn't seem to need blocking, plus I wanted to send them out ASAP, so I called them done. I hope they're warm enough and the seams aren't uncomfortable for little Courtney!
