Gloves… and a Kitty!
So, the Some Like It Hot gloves are progressing nicely. Nothing left to do but 8-1/2 fingers. See:
OK, they look like utter crap like that. The ribbing pulls them in. So… a glove with a thumb and 1/2 of a forefinger, modeled:
I’m loving these, and I can’t wait to finish them up!
And now, a gratuitous picture of a fat kitty stalking a laser pointer dot. Rowena loves that damn thing. She’s a loon.
One of these days, I need to get video of her chasing it around the room. It’s quite funny.

They are beautiful – but knitting 10 fingers scares me!

Ooo!!! A green laser pointer!!
I hope it gets cold enough to wear those gloves. That pattern would make a sexy sock too…

you have a cat? (checks sidebar and sees you have 3) I don’t think we see your critters nearly as often as we should.
Kashka prefers the red laser over the green… speaking of which, I should find the red laser and get it more batteries so I can tease her properly

Love the “tail in motion” shot of the cat
Glad you’re loving your gloves. They’re pretty!

Your gloves are amazing! Unfortunately, where I live, there’s only about three days in the year where these would be neither too hot nor too cold… I wish you many perfect days to show these off in.

You know, when I saw those gloves in the book I thought they’d be something I definitely wouldn’t make. Seeing them on you in fingerless form, I’m thinking they’d be perfect just like that for me. I fingers and wrists get so cold in some of the air conditioned offices here in the desert and I’ve been thinking about making some fingerless gloves. I really like the length of these though and the pattern is so pretty! Thanks for giving me a new look at them! And I love that color too. Must look for laser pointer for my cats now!

Those gloves are quite fab. I can’t wait to see the FO

Oh, these are swanky!! I might have to try to knit them for opening night!
Well, first I have to get my two hats done. Ugh!
