Cabled Fingerless Glove From Handspun
I recently finished the first of a pair of fingerless gloves from a two-tone corriedale that I blended on my diy blending board. I wet-set and thwacked my yarn for the first time. It’s harder to do it when your bathroom sink wont hold water! The yarn itself is in two cakes of two ply, one being 196 yards and 71 grams and the second 474 yards and 149 grams. It’s by far the most yarn I have ever spun! At least it gave me a good excuse to purchase a ball winder and swift! I’ve been wanting them forever. The glove is only the second time I have ever knit cables, and the first time I have knit them in the round. I am very proud of it! Before I knit the second one, I have to finish the second of a pair of socks for my mom. I had never completed a sock before the first one. I hope that when I’m better at socks, I can make some out of some of my handspun. My mom might just end up stealing the gloves when they are done for her cold hands! I‘m currently spinning some green BFL and it’s going like a dream! I hope everyone had a safe and happy weekend!
