Knit Bit: One down, one to go

Here is the first Fetching glove completed. I'm charmed by it. You may be wondering why I'm knitting myself another pair of fingerless gloves when I knit myself those Knucks a few months ago. Well, the other ones have each finger encased in a little tube, and while they are lovely and warm, they are too bulky for me to wear them and knit. (Yes, but this is what I do while Sally practices soccer - knit and try and keep my hands warm) Also, I really like this pattern and wanted to try it. Also, I don't have any purple gloves.

Sheila, the two different stitches really has me impressed.

Do you need a reason for anything you knit?

I would so wear those! My hands are perpetually cold and fingerless entirely--as opposed to the knucks--is brilliant.

And I'm with Alison on the two-stitch thing. Well done, friend.

I love them too! Any chance of getting a pair of those for Christmas? You make me proud - nice work! Love, Mom

Mom, I thought I'd use the ribbing and cables for your elbow warmers, but with a much thicker yarn and bigger needles. I can't wait to see you - I have a swatch to show you! And I want to take you to the quilting yarn store :)
