One done, almost

I finished one of my fingerless gloves, and then decided I need to make them gloves with full fingers…

 The gauge is good, the size is right on, but they are THICK.  They are so heavy that I couldn’t use them as fingerless gloves.  Either I’d wear them when it was really cold, and my fingers would freeze, or I’d wear them when it was warmer, and my hands would be too hot.  I’ve decided to go back and finish the fingers.  I’ll make another pair of fingerless gloves with different yarn that is lighter weight.

 Maybe some of that wonderful Malabrigo.

I really like the way the Triquetra looks on the back.  You can see from the picture that I left all of my bind-offs loose, so I can easily pull them back off and join some new yarn to finish up.
