No idea why I’m on such a glove/mitten kick but yeah. Probably would go easier if I actually had a pattern instead of doing this on the fly. Yep, ended up with some finger-width related weirdness that fortunately can easily be fixed with some creative stitch pick up and increases at the finger base. Whew.

Gloves are all done! They blocked beautifully and I took about a yard or so of conductive thread so now I can use these with my phone. I used duplicate stitch on the first fingers and thumb to add the thread and I’m pleased with how little it stands out. I took a picture of the fingers (the second picture) but it’s hard to see. But it works! I love these!
