Notes

Wonderful gloves.

Pattern is very well done and easy to follow.

I made these mittens too late at the end of winter and won’t be able to dawn them until next winter. The baby alpaca is extra soft and warms up my hands very fast and keeps them that way.

I chose this yarn so it could match the cowl I made a while ago.

US 10s worked fine for me vs the recommended 8s. I was a bit afraid at first because I have larger arms and hands, but the alpaca stretches out just enough but stays snug.

I worked these mittens using magic loop. Way more convenient than using DPNs.

Thanks for the awesome pattern!
