This year, I wanted to do something special for my sister. She didn’t make a wish list, so I had to be creative. Light pink is her favorite color, so I decided that I would make her a pair of convertible gloves and a double knit scarf. Never before had I done convertibles, so it was an interesting experiment.
Using Caron SimplySoft yarn, I started with adding fingers to the top as well, but I ended up making the fingers way too small, so I ended up changing out fingers for a 1×1 ribbing instead. The thumb was also going to be convertible, but I could not figure out how to make it stay down without putting an uncomfortable button there. Instead, I picked out the edge and completed the thumb. Not bad for my first set. I am going to post the double knit scarf that goes with this pair next month.
