Pattern: Classic Mittens - a simple free vintage knitting pattern on Ravelry here and online here
Yarn: Handspun dyed by Hello Yarn in the Turkey Attack colorway.
Needles: Size 8 DPNs
Mods: I just used the pattern as a guide and adjusted the fit as needed. That's the beauty of mittens - you can try them on as you go!
Here's the yarn before knitting it up:
Love these colors - they will go with my entire wardrobe.
I actually knit these in about 5 hours total - I just couldn't put them down!

So cute! What a great idea - I've got a few bits of handspun that could use a purpose - maybe I'll have to follow your lead.
LOVE the colors. Great job with the handspun!
