Notes

I don’t knit that many pairs of gloves because a) I suffer from “single glove syndrome” and b) in winter I need thick over padded gloves or my hand will turn purple.

However, I love Totoro and the idea of bringing him with me everywhere I go was just too good: I purposely made them one size bigger so I can wear an extra pair of gloves below.

Easy and quick knit, I followed the suggestion of using Armenian method of catching the floats.
