Project #2 of 5

It's time to introduce Project #2: Fetching Fingerles Gloves from Knitty.com. This pattern is a very popular pattern, and rightly so! This was the first project for me that I cabled and knitted on 5 double pointed needles. Quite a challenge but very rewarding. The thumb was a little bit of a challenge but I finally got it correct. The yarn I used is Berroco Ultra Alpaca in a beautiful Lavender Mix color #6283. This yarn is by far one of my favorite yarns. I bought 2 other colors to make some more of these gorgeous gloves!

The pattern called for 5 double pointed needles in size 4.0mm. The 5th needle is used as the cable needle. I used Brittany needles for the first time and instantly fell in love. Made out of birch hardwood, they are extremely smooth yet still stay on the needle.

Only 3 More Projects To Finish Before I Can Start Another!

Both the neck warmer and the mitts are beautiful! It shows how awesome Berrco yarn truly is.
