    Now dark nights here again bought a lovely bunt orange Italian yarn to crochet a sweater for myself.

    Plus getting asked to crochet hats for friends.

    I was at my ballroom dance class last week and the hall was so cold felt I needed gloves .

    Would love to have a crochet pattern for elagant fingerless gloves but have not found a pattern yet.

    this one might be worth a try, Scotkat....

    Doesn't seem to have a picture, but the description sounds about right! Wrong - it DOES have a picture, if you click on the flickr link above the instructions for making them.....

    Scotkat I have never been able to get the hang of crochet other than the basic blanklet squares or making a round hat......but give me a pair of knitting needles and I can do wonders with them!
