Notes

Cast on a few more stitches (30-18-18) since I wanted them to be longer, and twisted the stitches in one of the gloves in the other direction. Because mirroring :D

Also - Added a few cables for additional visual interest.

Decreasing two stitches per eight rows towards the wrist to remove bagginess

Moved the thumb gusset over some stitches, and because my hands are rather square, I increased the rate of increases.

Also going to do fingers. Let’s see how well I can wing fingers :D

3/13/2013 - Finished first glove. Just need to do the fingers on the other glove.

My calculations were a tad bit off on the index finger (it’s kind of baggy); I could also increase the length of each finger a bit.

(None of this has anything to do with the actual pattern, which is lovely.)
