Just finished my first fingerless glove ever - one down one to go! It's knitted in Sole Latte yarn, 100% milk fibre (no idea how they do it!).

| lol! yes they are. Apparently they 'wet spin' the protein fibres in the milk to make the yarn. *shrug* It is soft and lovely to work with and is strong - can't snap it. |

Hi Jaydee, I don't suppose you could let me have a pattern for those fingerless gloves could you? I have been studying some on line patterns and I just don't understand parts of them (that happens a lot with me  ) so I was wondering whether your pattern was any easier to understand? Plus, they look really good. |
