Finished Project: Woven Fingerless Gloves

For Christmas I both gave and received the fabulous new book Sock Yarn One Skein Wonders as a gift. Immediately upon getting it I dug into my sock yarn stash and made these adorable fingerless gloves:


I used some Knit Picks Gloss sock yarn in Jade, making them a nice match to my new red coat, very festive!

I found the thumb gusset to be a little tricky and needed to do some weaving in to close the whole where I rejoined the yarn for the thumb, but the end result isn't too messy and the dark yarn helps hide the flaws. All in all, I am thrilled with my new fingerless gloves, and my newly painted nails!
