Finally complete!

I finally completed the gauntlets for my mom! I changed up the pattern a bit so they would be knit on RS (st st) rather than the pattern st that created ridges (k 1 row, p next). I'm not a fan of the ridged look that the designer made for the pattern. It really was a simple change I just knitted the whole glove in place of the pattern st. You can see more about the pattern by clicking the Ravelry link in the previous post.

My current project(s)

Well my mom asked me To make her some gauntlets (fingerless gloves) for a Christmas presen just days before Christmas. Now days later I am still working on something that would normally have taken me just a few hours. Well first I ran out of yarn, then I couldn't find that yarn so I had to buy a different one, now I must start over because the new yarn is a completely different shade of brown. Then I started some slippers as an added gift for her in the downtime of my quest to find the brown yarn. Now I have ran out of the slippers yarn as well just inches before the completion of the second sock! I am not having a good project week. But anyway here's a ravelry link to the gauntlet pattern http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/chunky-arm-warmers
