Notes

07/26/11--I wanted to use the lace panel in a pair of full-fingered gloves. I also prefer the look of stst to garter so mods were needed.

07/29/11--Finished Glove 2. Used slightly under 1.25 skeins. Very happy with the result! Nice yarn to work with, very smooth and even. Will post photo's when dry.

<p>Glove Mods:

  • CO 42. Used the 2 sts to make a 1-st P gutter between stst and lace panel.
  • Used M1F & M1B inc’s rather than yo’s for thumb gusset. Used 15 sts for a longer gusset (3”).
  • Knit to base of pinky in pattern (7 1/2”) inc’d to 46 sts total then knit 1 row even (no lace or p sts).
  • Pinky: (13) 5+5, co 3, Ring: (15) 5+5, p/u 4, co 3, dec 2 on next rnd, Middle: (15) 6+6, p/u 3, co 3, dec 2 next rnd, Index: (17) 7+7, co 3. Thumb: (17) co 3, dec 1 next rnd.
  • Gauge: 6.5S x 9R w/#5 dpn’s in stst.

Blocked measurements: 11" L x 3" W across palm, laid flat.
