The simple cabled gauntlets are finished! They’re squishy and soft. The cabling was pretty easy. As today was hectic beyond all reason, this post will be short. The second gauntlet’s thumb came out much better than the first one’s. I managed to pick up the stitches without creating a gap. I managed to do the gusset without creating holes. I’m a little sad that when I put the little buggers on the fabric stretches across the palm and it looks like there are some ladders that don’t show when the gauntlets aren’t being worn. That being said, they make me all kinds of happy. They’ll definitely come in handy when I’m sitting in the chilly house or in the chilly veal fattening pen where I hold my office hours.
I have some other ideas kickin’ around in my brain, but currently it’s too much effort to put them down in the thoughtful way that they deserve. Or don’t deserve, depending on how you feel about my random bloggings!
