Notes

Update: I loooooove these gloves! I got a little Pattern Fatigue, but only because I (foolishly) opted to make a zillion pairs of them, but I’m in love with these buttons. Just look at those buttons!!! And the gloves are perfect and soft and warm and go with everything in my closet wonderfully.

I’m loving this pattern so far! I’m a little worried that they’ll be too big for my baby hands, but if that’s the case I’ll gift them to my aunt since 1 skein of this particular yarn will make 2 pair! If they’re too big I’ll make the next pair just on the size 5’s instead of switching from 5 to 6 like the pattern says to.

Also, note that I’m using circular needles instead of double-pointed needles using Magic Loop Method. Which I learned a week prior to starting these. Wish me luck!

Finished Update: Done! A pair for me and a pair for my aunt. It took me forever to get the darn buttons on (nobody told me sewing on knitted projects was so tricky!) but I have the perfect buttons fully attached and pictures!!! I’m definitely gonna make these again this summer as a nice, light thing to carry around since everyone who’s seen them wants a pair for Christmas next year. Yup yup!

Did I mention how much I LOVELOVELOVE this pattern!? <3
