Awesome patterns. Your colors are so unique. My husband would love the men's gloves, and I think that color would go perfectly with his winter jacket. Thanks for sharing with us. - Keri in OKC -
 
I'd definitively be doing these for my friends! thnx for sharing!

:D :D :D
 
I am going to try these tonight. I need just a little something extra on these blustery days when I go outside to take care of my chicken chores. This will be just the ticket.

Thanks
 
This pattern is very nice. I am in process of making a pair. They are turning out great. I noted error in row 15 left hand. It should read 20 (21) not 20 (18)
Thank you for pattern.
