Notes

Yarn is recycled from a sweater (wool/acrylic/nylon mix) that I dyed with food coloring and KA packets to get a nice, heathered purple (yarn was originally cream)

This was a very satisfying knit.. the lace pattern is easy enough to memorize and intuitive enough for light TV watching, lol! Love the way the thumb gusset came out, and her instructions on how to pick up the stitches for the thumb (which I didn’t follow for one glove, and strictly followed for the other) made a huge difference in that little gappy area you get when picking up the thumb on most fingerless mitts or mittens. Love this!
