Three Gifts

Rinda Elliott (awesome writer and fellow Deadline Dame) mentioned she’d love a pair of fingerless gloves some day.  I told her since I knit for fun, I’d be happy to make her a pair.

I finally finished them! (It may have taken me over a year to knit these in my snippets of free time. Thank goodness Rinda was willing to be patient!)  I ended up making three pairs, because I was worried the wool in the first two pairs would be too scratchy. The last pair are super soft. 🙂

Rinda just got the gloves today  (and says she loves them! Yay!) which means I can share photos. Links to the patterns are also included.

The whole kit and kaboodle:

What do you think? Pretty good patterns? I like the green pair (Helix) so much, I might knit myself a set someday. You know.  In my free time.  🙂

    I really like the brown ones and the green ones the best. I’ve never knitted fingerless gloves with actual fingers. Mine have stopped at the knuckles.

    ENVY! I work in a place that can get pretty cold and I have to type regularly. I bought some cheap fingerless gloves at Kohls, but they don’t come close to the sheer awesomeness of yours.
