Notes

C.o. 76 st.

Using my yellow circulars, no clue what size they are (really should get one of those size cards). Gonna wait a few rounds to see if I like the tension like this.

Tension is fine, however it seems this will become way too big. Debating on if I should downsize to 64 or 60 stitches. 60 is probably best if I want a snug fit.

Actual end result:
60 st - 38 rounds before thumb

8 repitions thumb gusset increases (18 st)

10 rounds for hand

pinky: pick up 12 stitches, c.o. 2, 5 rounds.
16 st for other fingers - 9 rounds

Thumb: 7 rounds

Note on yarn: I was very surprised and frustrated at the way the colours were turning out on the first glove. It started out very pastel, which is cute enough, but then halfway it turned darker and I felt it didn’t match. I thus frogged half of it and picked up a bit from another skein to continue the pastel. The second glove was way more saturated in its colours but luckily stayed consistent throughout.

Since the 2 turned out different, I tried embracing it by giving the pastel one dark fingers and the dark one light fingers.
