Just saying "Hi"....

and thanks for allowing me to join in your KAL! Needless to say, the gloves are gorgeous, and I am anxious to get going.... Hmmm - April 15th, huh!! Oh Well, time to plan....

To introduce myself, my name is Kathy, and I live in Iowa. I am a long-time knitter. Usually of small objects, as I seem to lose interest on big projects before I get them finished. So - my loves are socks, mittens, and "Glittens". I have recently finished some "glittens" and photos are on my blog, if anyone is interested (Feb 27th post). They were made from DK weight yarn. I am not terribly experienced with gloves from fingering wt, but hopefully I will be able to manage. The end product certainly seems well worth the trouble. They are indeed beautiful. Hats off to you Karen!

I look forward to starting soon, and seeing all the beautiful gloves that we (all 27 of us!) will make! Good luck to everyone!!

Cathy,

The Feb 21st post on my blog gives a little history - where the pattern came from - and other examples. Sorry - perhaps I should have mentioned that date, rather than the Feb 27th post.
