On the Gift List

©
I'm working on my gift list for the upcoming holiday season.  I love to give homemade gifts to family and friends.  You know that if you are a crafter you work on this list all year long as leaving it to the last minute either means friends don't get homemade gifts or you are working all hours of the day and night to complete the items.
I've completed a pattern by Knit Picks using 3.25 mm needles and some Patons sock yarn in a self striping colour.

 These fingerless gloves are knitted in one piece and seamed at the side.

This is the third pair I've done using this same pattern and I've already cast on one more pair.
 This pattern was a free download when I got it, but I now notice on Ravely that there is a charge for it.
 
Are you working on your gift list?
 
Thanks for visiting today. I hope you can take a moment to leave a comment and say hi.

  1. Oh I could use some of those myself right about now, as the hands are the last to warm up outside! That self striping yarn is perfect...
