Notes

These come out pretty big if you make them as called for. Both wide and long. They come about half way down my forearms.

I think these would be more suited to a man size-wise. If I make them again, I will use sport weight yarn and go down a needle size or two. That being said, I have pretty small hands.

Other than the size issue, the patter is very well written and the chart is easy to follow.

The Vintage is a great yarn. Very tightly spun, so the stitch definition is amazing. I would definitely use it again.
