Notes

I started with the Canada sock pattern, but it was too tight to go over the heel. This is the simplest adaptation to take the pattern to a glove.

The Kroy knits up densely on 2mm needles.

Jim has been wearing these handknit gloves to work, with permission. He’s wore out the fingers, but the hands still look great. So I am re-knitting the fingers for him. I’m lucky to still have some of the original yarn around.
