I'm testing out a pattern of my own. The theme is Space Invaders. I knitted it with my Red Heart Super Saver and Bernat 100% acrylic yarn. The gauge is a bit bigger than the Lamb's Pride Super Wash. This is just a tester but if and when I do knit a pair of mittens out of these yarns, I'll make a smaller pattern with only 20 stitches instead of 24.
Here's a sampling of what it looks like.

I've also knitted up swatches with the acrylic yarns.
The first one is with Red Heart Super Saver.

Gauge: 4,5 st / inch (18 st / 4")
Needles: sz 9 (3,5mm)
This one is with Bernat 100% acrylic.
