Da capo

I liked the fingerless gloves I wrote about in my last post so much that I had to make a pair for myself. The pattern is the same as then, an adaption of Fetching from Knitty. I just love them, they are the perfect thing to wear at the moment, when there is no way of predicting what the weather is going to be like when you live your house in the morning.

There is one minor flaw though; the gloves have different colours.

I knew they wouldn’t be completely similar when I started knitting them, but if I had known then how different they turned out, I might have tried knitting them a little differently. I don’t mind really, I think they are charming the way they are.

So, what is the reason for this mismatched pair of gloves? This:

I used some of the yarn left over from knitting the Trellisscarf last summer. The scarf and the mismatched gloves match perfectly and they are just the thing for the season’s unpredictable weather.
