Winter Gloves

Finished knitting my gloves for winter. Here is two pictures of the finished item, knitted on UK14 (2mm) two needles using Katia Olé Socks "condor".

  1. I like your gloves very much and the color is also very nice. It is impressive to know that for fingers you used only 2 needles instead of 4 or 5...waw! I saw this yarn a week ago in the shop and was impressed by its softness. I am still hesitant which needles` size it is better to use for it. I know the thickness of this yarn is approx. 3,5 mm but I see you used needles' size 2mm, perhaps I should do the same. I plan to knit male fingerless gloves.

    1. It's great yarn, so soft and doesn't pile. Like I say above, I knitted these gloves on 2mm, but then I also always knit my socks on 2mm. I find it keeps the stitch nice and tight and good for a hard wear. But of course, do a test knit in both sizes and see what you think!
