The top-secret project is top-secret no more! I designed these fingerless gloves for my Aunt Meg. They feature a long cuff with a simple fairisle pattern, a peasant thumb (meaning theyre completely interchangeable left and right) and garter stitch edging. The thumb is long, better to keep her warm while allowing her to utilize her Blackberry.

Top-secret X-mas Project!

These are some yarns that I may or may not be using for a top secret x-mas present/original design. Stay tuned for more info (after x-mas!)
