Periwinkle Gauntlet Gloves

Here is the first pair of gauntlet gloves I knit for myself. As I said in my last post the yarn I used was slightly thin for the pattern but I was completely seduced by the color. I just love periwinkle! The yarn is Jojoland Cashmere 2-ply.

It is really pleasant to work such a simple pattern; I've been working on the gloves while simultaneously reading.

I did a basic eyelet row and 3 stitch I-cord for the bows.

I am now doing the same pattern in Elann's Peruvian baby cashmere blend so I can photograph them before I put the pattern on Ravelry and Lulu and Patternfish. If I make them a third time I will use Sarah's Yarn fingering weight 100% cashmere , maybe in black.
