Peaceful Palms Weekly #3

A lot of you are discovering that knitting gloves -- both with and without fingers -- can be quite addicting.  How many of you have knit, or plan to knit, more than one pair?  I know I have! 

Congratulations to this week's Peaceful Palms finishers:

• Alison finished a beautiful pair of fair isle tipless gloves.  Pop over and find out why Alison made her left hand pinkie intentionally shorter!
• Bernadette knit the Hooray For Me tipless gloves in a fun self striping yarn.
• Guylaine completed a wonderful pair of Tyra Wristwarmers.
• Jessica is sporting a terrific pair of Ruffle Gloves -- a ruffle makes a very nice cuff embellishment.
• Kelly finished the tipless gloves for her husband and has started her own blog.
• Kimberly (scroll down) is all done with the cable gloves she designed for herself.  She learned that unless you take careful notes, it's hard to exactly replicate the first glove!
• Reb has finished not one, but two pairs of fingerless gloves to give as gifts to two very different recipients.
• Vicki's finished Natalya fingerless gloves turned out really well.

Other knit along action includes:

• Agnes has begun a pair of Broad Street Mittens for her brother and is contemplating whether they are too big.
• Alice knit her first fingerless glove based on "The Knitter's Handy Book of Patterns".  She too is contemplating whether they are too big.  Am I detecting a trend here?
• Angela finished her first glove also based on "The Knitter's Handy Book of Patterns" and has already begun thinking of ways to tweak the pattern for her hand.
• Bekki is also making the Broad Street Mittens, hers in a mystery color.
• Beverly used the Progressive Gloves article from Interweave Knits (Winter 2003) to create a glove just right for her hand.
• Ceris has solved her "what should I knit" dilemma and is planning to knit the vintage beaded gloves from Handknit Holidays using Blue Skies Alpaca.
• Cheryl's got a whole pile of knit fingers!  She's started joining them together and adding a bit of color.
• Gale is knitting the Lace Up Fingerless Mitts from Alterknits.  She's had to do a bit of ripping, but has worked out the problem and is back on track.
• Glenda is designing her own fingerless gloves and is knitting them out of Rowan Yorkshire tweed 4-ply
• Margene has a glove in progress and is knitting with spectacular yarn -- the yarn is spun with beads and make a lovely cuff for Margene's gloves.
• Mia (scroll to Nov. 2nd) finished her first lacy, white glove and immediately casted on its pair -- no 2nd glove syndrome for her!
• Queen has a handful of cleverly labeled fingers!
• Springy is knitting the tipless gloves from Weekend Knitting and is making good progress -- she's got 2 fingers and one glove to go.
• Wendy has cast on the fingerless gloves she's knitting for her daughter.  She's using Regia sock yarn to knit these.
• Yuvee designed her own fingerless gloves with a delicate picot edging and has knit the first glove.
