One glove...





I'm really proud of this Brie glove. Not only does it look lovely (it's my blog and I'll crow if I want to!), but it fits and the Kidsilk Haze yarn is so soft and snuggly.


The real beauty of the pattern is that you don't need DPNs, which are the bane of my life. However, you will need to seam the fingers, but it only takes a couple of minutes to do each one. If you squint hard, you should be able to see to eyelet detail on this pic

The other one should only take a few hours to complete, which is just as well because I tend to run out of steam when it comes to knitting anything that comes in a pair. I am so pleased that the first one has turned out well that finishing the second half feels like a chore!

Love the glove. It's so cool that it goes way up your arm... my coats are always too short in the arm if I do anything but let my arms hang at my side, so my forearms always get cold.

Did you make up the pattern? If not, may I ask where you found it? Thanks.

Hi!

My mathematics skills are not quite up to designing my own patterns yet. I got this pattern from the new Rowan pattern book. The pattern is called Brie, and it uses one ball of Kidsilk Haze.
I have the same problem with sleeves being too short as well, so I'm looking foward to modelling these gloves!
