Snow, Bread, Milk and Gloves

Well, here at Weavers Cottage, the snow has begun to fall.  In true British fashion, I have to confess, the urge to go out and unnecessarily buy bread and milk is quite strong!

The cold, snowy weather has made me think of warm, woolen accessories.  I have three balls of wool I got at a discount a few days ago that I couldn't think what to do with.  The cogs began whirring as the first flakes of snow fell, and I have come up with a new design for fingerless gloves!

I began swatching gauges and measuring my wrist and before long came up with the idea of a set of crochet entrelac gloves.  I began crocheting straight away and here is a blurry snap of my progress....

I hope to have a pattern drafted by the end of this weekend.  I'm really enjoying the entrelac pattern, it's not as tricky as it looks when you get going.

Update:

Entrelac Gloves crochet pattern is now available on Ravelry, Etsy and Craftsy.

Happy Hooking!
