Notes

Used Magic Loop, following alibellknits suggestion and dividing with 19 stitches on the front needle and 22 on the back, so as to begin each needle with a knit stitch.

Yarn is beautiful, but have already found a thin spot that just pulled apart while I was knitting.

I used two balls of Diakeito Dimusee so that I could try to match the stripes. They are not exact because the striping is a little variable--but not bad for the first time trying this.

Finished with K1P1 for 4 rows around the top before binding off; see Darriaa’s project. This was a great decision--gives to cloves a finished look!

The thumbs are a little fiddly and leave a couple holes to sew up. But they look great! I did not block them because the ribbing is so stretchy.
