I’m quite pleased with this pattern and yarn because they work so well together and the gloves couldn’t have come out better! I made the gloves smaller than the pattern and they fit perfectly. The Drops pattern is clear and concise.

If I were to knit this pattern again I would:
A. change the cuff from p4, k2, p4 to k4, p2, k4 and work a 4 stitch cable twist straight up from the edge and flow it into the hand, matching the cables on the fingers
or
B. work a 2 stitch baby cable in the two knit stitches straight up from the edge and flow it into the hand cables.

Details
• pre-washed both skeins in Eucalan
• gauge: 24 sts=4”
• shortened the cuff to 3”

Needles
Cuff: Aero coated metal 7” dpns, UK10 (US3/3.25mm)
Hand: Vintage aluminum 7” dpns, US4 (3.5mm)
Fingers: Brittany Birch wood 5” dpns, US4 (3.5mm)
