Using the handspun yarn bought in Leiden, lining them with leftover alpaca for both extra warmth and to avoid complaints of scratchiness.

CO 24 (28) (well 48/56, then began the double knitting)

15 rows of 2x2 ribbing

4 rows of stockinette before thumb gusset begun

6 (8) thumb stitches set aside

15(7) more rows worked before beginning decreases.

1 plain knit round between decrease rounds 2x, then decrease until 4 remain

Large size decreases:

2 rows in between 3x

1 row in between until last two dec, worked immediately following.

Thumbs:

7 (9) rows worked on thumb avant decrease.

Interesting structure-- one ply was consistently spun tight, in some spots obviously overspun, but then plied with a much airier, barely spun ply.
