fetching fingerless gloves


I really love fingerless gloves. They are the perfect balance of 80s-tastic and modern sass. I'd been looking for a pattern using sock yarn, when I saw the Fetching Fingerless Gloves as a shop sample at Yarn Tree Studio. It may have taken me a total of 3 hours for the pair. Maybe. And those were mostly mindless hours. I knitted a pair of mittens last year for my niece, and the thumb was such a pain that I had been dreading this pattern. The truth is, from now on, I will try to modify patterns to work the thumb this way. So simple. Now...when will it be cold enough here for me to wear them??
