Hey everyone! I designed these from Hello Yarn's Generic Norwegian Mitten pattern. They're for my best friend who has a master's in zoology, and also keeps turtles and bearded dragons as her pets. Knitted with KP Size 3 Sock needles and KP Telemark in Curry and Pesto. Let me know what you think :D

Matching up a particular design with a particular recipient is the best. Impressive work!

Those are absolutely gorgeous, I'm so jealous of your friend for having a friend like you!! I am also very much into herpetology, I wish I had such a thoughtful friend who knit that well!! (or a friend that knit at all...lol)
What a perfect gift for your friend! You did a wonderful job.
