I finally finished up my Almeara gloves this morning. It took a little longer than I expected but not surprising when I actually knit a tank in between gloves!
Good news ..... these little beauties only cost me $6! The yarn is ' I Love This Wool' from Hobby Lobby. I bougth 2 skeins but only needed one (actually only used about 3/4).
Bad news . . . . I think our winter is already over, it's forecast to be in the 80's ALL week, so these little beauties will have to be put away until it's cold enough to wear them. I did wonder if I should 'gift' these or not but I made a decision - they're mine ;-) All mine!

Nicely done! I still haven't blogged about mine, I should do that. :o) At least they'll be all ready for the fall, right?
How did you enjoy the knit?
I love these, can't go wrong with 6 dollars huh!
I'm putting them on my list to make for my mum... someday.
Those are absolutely beautiful! I'm so loving these.
these are great but look super complicated - well done!
Oh well, it'll be lovely to have a fresh new pair waiting for you next autumn...

and just imagine how excited you will be to pull those out with the first frost of fall.

Beautiful! If you are anything like me, you will pack these away, forget about them, and then have a really nice surprise come fall:)

Definitely a gift to you, and what a bargain price. Well done all round.
