Fetching

With some of the yarn left over from my star hat, I made "Fetching" gloves from knitty. These pictures are actually my second pair of the gloves- I made the first out of some of the blue yarn, and left them at home with my mom before I took pictures of them. I like stiff gloves (and I still like playing around with gauge) so these are made with Berocco Peruvia on size three needles. They were a bit stiff at first, but they're quite warm and as I have worn them they have gotten a lot softer. Because my stitches were a bit shorter than the pattern called for, I did increase the number of rows in the body of the hand- 21 instead of 18- but otherwise the pattern remains unchanged.
