Sheepskin Gloves

It's taken a few days, but finally my new fingerless gloves are made. Many tweaks of the 'pattern' (I drew round my hand...) and adding in of gussets and, though they look as elegant as plaster casts, they are WARM.

The wrap-around flap had to go. Just didn't work.
 A wee note of caution - it's really not a good idea to use Stanley knife blades without the handle... I have a few fine cuts in the surface of my skin to prove it, but got away without slicing my fingers badly. Surely I have a handle SOMEWHERE if I have blades in my tool box????
