Notes and Ideas for the BB: knit or crochet a pair of adult-sized fingerless gloves.  Please share your pattern ideas and project notes!

I decided to knit "Reading Mitts" by Susie Rogers.


I experimented with 2-at-a-time knitting with my socks and I love it!  I really like being done with both and having both items match with the same row count and the same increase/decrease in the same place.  :)



The "lace row" is two stitches: YO, K2T!  That is it - an increase and a decrease which makes a row of eyelets.


About 4 inches in:


The pattern talks about a turning row and I figured it out!  The gloves need to be hemmed turning the first eyelet row into a pointed edge.


Left glove needs to be hemmed. Right glove is hemmed. Check out the pretty pointed edge.
 
Ew. You guys are ugly with a capital UG. Here, maybe this tiny ad can help:
