Notes

tired of all the winter greys and browns i made a new hat/gauntlet set to brighten up the last days of winter.

Alterations:
made 9 ribbing rows at the beginning - cause i like it larger.
made one more pattern repeat of the garter stitch edging.

First Gauntlet used up 45g with these alterations, so i should be good with one skein.

Little bit disappointed that the pattern only gives directions to make one gauntlet for both hands. if you use that for the second you would end up with the uneven garter stitch section right on top of your right hand. don’t like that, so i made up my own alterations and placed the thumbhole differently to avoid that.
