Gloves (Currently WIP)

Note: This is a WIP post.

So today I started a pair of gloves. Because of bored, and I have pretty yarn. and because if i work on a single project i'll just lose interest in everything 


What I have done thus far is the mitten part, need to make the thumbs, then combine it, then add the wrist and up the arm. Because I've noticed that most gloves aren't really long enough to be comfortable. I prefer them to be longer (to the point where it covers half up to my elbow) because then my arm doesn't get cold when my hoodie/sweater/jacket/cover-up moves.

I've used the pattern for the snout from this Hippo pattern, but  just continued working in the spiral till it was long enough to cover all four fingers to the point where it hits the thumb. I figure for the thumb I'll magic circle 6, then work in a round till it hits about 10 to 12 stitches, then add it to what I've got. Then add the wrist/arm~ :D I'm using a lovely light purple yarn. Red Heart Orchid. I should probably add this to my raverly. Since I'll need to know what needle I'm using.
