I'm currently hooking up a pair of Andrea Denby's "Hermione Shell Mittens" http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/hermione-shell-mittens to go with my Luna Lovegood scarf. I know. I'm a nerd.
I'm making them in the same chocolate brown super saver yarn as the shawl, so instead of casting on 40 sts with a 3.5mm hook, I'm doing 32 sts(to allow for the 8 stitch pattern to repeat) with a 4.5mm hook. I have tiny hands, and it is turning out perfectly for me, size wise. I also think I'll make mine shorter in length. The pattern calls for 12-14 rows of the shell pattern, and I'm planning on doing 8.
