Fingerless Gloves for Kayla

Photobucket

I found the pattern for these Fingerless Gloves from a link on Knitting Pattern Central.

Using 3.25mm double pointed needles, I made these gloves using Premier Yarns Serenity Sock Weight in Amethyst.

I like this pattern for using sock weight yarn for something other than socks. However, the thinner the yarn, the more knits it takes to cover the same space. This was my first venture with a thumb hole and I'm happy to say that it went pretty well.
