The glove was cast on, again, on Tuesday night and here's what it looked like at the end of last night's knitting group.
Glove knitting could be a new addiction. The pattern is nice and simple and it's a really logical progression. While 'Knitty' taks about 'tangy', 'piquant' and 'extra-spicy' levels of ease, I would put glove making at 'One glass of wine' especially if you have made a couple of pairs of socks.
Levels:
Stay sober - very tricky and fiddly pieces, or as Knitty puts it: "These babies have teeth!"
Have a shandy - difficult, but really not that much of a problem.
Glass of wine - very easy, but keep an eye on the detail.
Bottle of wine - an absolute doddle.
PS. I had to apologise to a lady at last night's group. She first came to group about six weeks ago when she saw me making a pair of socks... I did warn her.
It's catching I tell you.
Last night she was making the most beautiful pair of "Colinette Jitterbugs" for herself - having made four pairs recently: three swiped by her husband and the last pair by her grandson who calls them his 'shocks'. :-)

pretty, pretty glove... *pets it*
I really have to give them a go at some point...
The gloves look great :-)
To your "Bugg'rit!" I say, "Millennium hand and shrimp!" :-D
Cheers! "Millenium hand and shrimp!" Argh! I know that saying from somewhere.
Very nice glove! Will have to try that sometime....and I very much like your new difficulty rating system. I think we might also need a system that ranks difficulty by the interest level of a TV show you could watch while knitting--but maybe that's too subjective! ;-)
Great looking gloves. I like your rating better than Knitty's, at least I understand yours ;) :D
