I made these gloves in November 2014 for a Christmas gift. These were my first time using dpns! The gloves worked up quickly and were easy to make. I am not a fan of the lateral braid stitch used in the pattern, which is why I gave it four stars. The stitch is easy and looks nice, but it took me forever and was very annoying, while not looking nice enough to outweigh those drawbacks. I’m happy with how these turned out, though, and I hope they will be well-received.
