Notes

Yarn is very scratchy. No wonder you need a lining!

November 15, 2020

Oh crap. I knitted these inside out to avoid puckering and in the process reversed the motif on the thumb. That is, the motif that should be on the back of the thumb is facing the palm instead. Not going to rip it back now. It still looks ok.

Finished. Made linings from Drops Flora in black. Lining is slightly too wide but ok. Next time I’ll use a 2.50 mm needle instead of 2.75
