Notes

will wear these on christmas!

because i made them longer than the pattern asked for I placed the hole for the thumb a little bit higher, so they finish close to the fingertips and under the elbow.

finally i finished these.
and they fit!
and the are super light and soft but give a lot of warmth at the same time.
love love love this yarn.

i don’t really like this big gap in the middle that came out after blocking. maybe it will go away with the next wash?

the yarn is so beautiful after blocking, i can’t even handle it! but they look super super tight…afraid to stitch them together…maybe tomorrow

i don’t get it, the stitches look loose but the gloves seem to be really tight. i stretched the best i could for blocking to maybe get them a little bit wider. i like the look and feel of them very much but now i fear they won’t fit… oh, and I made one scallop more than the pattern said and the ribbing has some exra rows too, so they will be awfully long as well. i blame it on the cold that is still bothering me.

some more knitting in the evening and finished 2nd glove.

2012-11-14
after some knitting last evening and this morning one glove is already finished. easy knitting. the stitches look very loose though my gauge is close to the one in the pattern. i am curious to see what blocking will do for this yarn and pattern.

i know that i only start this project because i am afraid to start the other project i want to finish for christmas.
it is silly.
i have a very bad cold as well.
