I discovered that it is impossible to take a picture of both my hands at the same time without a tripod and a timed shutter release. So these will have to do.
I REALLY had fun knitting these gloves. I admit this yarn is a little loud. But in person they are so cheerful that I don't mind that you can't really see the cable details as much as I'd like.

Besides, it won't be the first pair. I got over my fear of 'waste yarn' stitches pretty quick, and sidestepped the knitted picot bind off which I thought looked wonky even in the original pattern.
I DID rip out my original crochet picot edging and replaced it with a better one that I worked out on the second glove. I'm glad I did. It doesn't flare as much.

And just to prove I'm no chicken in the fashion statement department, I am wearing them out today while I go shopping.

I might have to stop over at the yarn shop and find myself some mohair yarn. I got this pair out of just one ball of yarn. So I think I can splurge a little on one ball of mohair don't you???

(Don't mention it to the Hen.)

I'm not afraid of her.

(You are a big fat liar too....)
