Notes

cast on 14 for garter palm
50 rows for garter palm

pick up: 27, ktb on pick up (drop 1st 2 stitches!)

provisional cast on, 11 (9 from pattern + 2 from dropped pick up). Shift marker 1 along before starting decreases (to space out the extra 2 on cast on)

2nd marker is last decreased stitch

Thumb:
unzip prov cast on for thumb: 10. PU 7
Knit 2 rows
(k2tog, k3) k2tog
k 2 rows
k2tog, k4, k2tog, k5

Prov cast on 5, k (carrying on from previous stitches), turn, k4 ktb, turn/k until all thumb stitches worked. Graft (bottom->edge, use yarn to sew small hole closed)

25 plain rows after last thumb decrease

Prov cast on 7, k (carrying on from previous stitches, make sure this is in line with seam on palm), turn, k6 ktb, turn/k until all stitches cast off. Graft (from bottom-edge, sew hole)

If I were to redo these, I’d split the decreases on the thumb over a few rows, so the bump was less obvious. Otherwise v please with them!
