New Starts
I think I’ve got a (very loose) grip on what I want the Pretty Princess gloves/mittens to look like. I’m not sure that I even want them to be gloves anymore. I think I have a lace pattern for the gauntlet part. It’ll be about 3″, which puts it midway between the recipient’s wrist and elbow. Now I just need to make a *shudder* swatch.
I also inadvertently found out that I need new gloves/mittens myself. There are some big, gaping holes that I can’t fix properly – the handspun is all gone and I don’t have that same fiber to make more right now. So…off to something new. I though I might start with this (link to .pdf pattern). I’d like to use the latest civilian figures from here. Assuming that’s vague enough for everybody…
The link to the pattern doesn’t work. I’m also thinking of making some mittens for the winter as well.
Link’s fixed! Sorry about that, Jen – and thank you.
Huh. I might just have to make me a set of those. Shame it was much to hot to wear something like that today for Dubya’s little visit to my neighborhood.
Yes, I got stuck in traffic on a city bus and I’m still grumbling.
