I'm glad I wasn't the only one! Three toed socks!

I've been thinking about fingerless gloves. I really want fingerless gloves. I think I NEED fingerless gloves. I may have the perfect yarn for fingerless gloves. I just don't know if I have the skills.

Anyone have a fingerless glove pattern for knitting noobs who aren't so good are knitting much besides squares and rectangles with fringe?

actually the most basic fingerless glove is a rectangle that you sew together and leave a hole for your thumb. I made a bunch of pairs recently with big chunky yarn and it only took about an hour and a half to make a pair.

Hmm.. maybe I can do that then. I'll have to look at see what I can find. I don't know about chunky yarn though because I will probably wear them the most when I'm computing. OK, that was silly. If I'm awake, I'm computing and I don't think I'll wear them when I'm asleep. I've got a really nice merino/cashmere blend worsted weight that I think would work well and not be irritating.

Oh - I go away for a little while and people mock me! :-D
But yes - 1 pair and 1 sock of another pair - - which is just too wordy. And it is SOCKS not STOCKS! Your could have noted that Gayla! ;-)

LOL I could have, if I had even noticed! I was way too distracted by the thought of 3 toed socks!

Thanks for the link! I like the look of those but I'm intimidated just reading about them. I'm about a dozen rows into Ami's rectangle idea and loving the way this yarn feels in my hands.
