Knitted Gloves

After knitting socks the next step had to be gloves.

The pattern is from the same people my original socks pattern was from.  Can’t tell you now as my knitting bag is elsewhere.

The wool is from Pendle Stitches in Clitheroe.  WYS (West Yorkshire Spinners) Signature 4 ply.

The palms look ridiculously long, but look fine on.

I made them on small 2.5 circular needles.

Very interesting process, a bit mind bending in parts, but it all works out.  You knit the palm, make the thumb hole and put that on a separate needle.  Then start each finger from the little finger and finally knit the thumb.  Who knew.  I do now!!
