Trial and error

As it was getting a bit nippy – and I was putting off work – I thought I’d have a go at making some fingerless gloves – or just one as it turned out.

the ampersand pattern came from this great blog and was designed for a hat.

I’m afraid that I will have to go back to the drawing board as the fingerless glove doesn’t look quite so good on – my fault for making it up as I went along – so I need to make some adjustments and perhaps ditch the intarsia.

So it’s back to the needles – if I have sucess I will post the result here soon.
