Pattern: Motorcycle Chica Gloves IK Summer 07
If you can't tell I love this issue of the interweave
Material: Reynolds Saucy Sport 100% mercenzied cotton colorway 150
Amount: one ball and a few yards of a second
Needles: US 5 circulars and dpn


So yea this is the project that allowed to have left overs for the perdita headband (check out below). Its a great pattern, but we wary that the wrist band will be tooooo big, so reduce your stitches! This project is first worked flat and then in the round. This project enlightened me on how different my in the round and flat gauges really are. If I were to knit this again I would have knit the flat part in a tighter gauge (smaller needles) and then work in the round on the US 5. Word to the wise

In other exciting news both Vogue and Interweave came out with their holiday knitting magazines! I already scanned bboth and put more projects on my que. Also only 200 people in front of me on the raverly waitlist. I'm kinda nervous to get on raverly. Will it be the end of all my productivity at work? I think so! (I'm extremely excited)
