Thanks guys!

The second one turned out much better than the first. I’m going to make another pair, I have pink yarn that’s on the chopping block, and hopefully they’ll be perfect-and fast. Glove #2 only took about 3 hours total, which kind of sounds like a lot, but it felt fast.

You are definitely inspiring me to start making things again. Your work looks so nice (and the “flaws” make me think that I might be able to do it … not make it unattainable).

Hey those look great!!!! I find a great bind of for fingerless gloves is the Tubular Bind Off in which you actually just use a darning needle and do some weird stitching. It’s easy to follow here though:

that’s the tutorial i like to use. The bind off is nice and stretchy, and looks kind of decorative. :)

Great job though!.. they look really comfortable.

I crochet those all the time, but they aren’t as pretty as yours. I have a pair that go to my elbows, I use them at work, because I sit by the outisde wall and it gets brrrr brrrr cold. but I can still type with them on.

That’s what I’m paying $20+ for every few years – protection for my hands from paper itches (I had some nerve damage after carpal tunnel surgeries) and to hide my hand tattoos.

Your creation reminded me of an improved version of the wretched things I wear.
