Striped Fingerless Gloves


I fell in love with the multi-colored light blue/sea green/lavender yarn from the yarn self-portrait and as a result have done a slew of projects using it (if you haven't noticed already from the previous recent posts). Believe it or not, I used to hate this type of yarn because I guess it really turned me off that I couldn't control how the pattern would end up looking if the colors were changing at their own rates. I think awefully blotchy colors could end up looking bad... Anyway, now that I've gotten over that, I've started to buy more multi-colored yarn! Haha


I referenced a few patterns, but ended up just creating a simplified version of my own. The top of the glove doesn't have separate sections for fingers, and some shaping was done for the thumb and in the wrist area so it wouldn't be too loose. Fun and easy project that I finished while watching pick-up basketball. FYI, that's when Austen beat Loryn at Horse. Yea, I saw it happen.
