FO - Knotty gloves

Knotty gloves

Pattern: Knotty gloves by Julia Mueller
Yarn: Oxford Kitchen Yarns Sock
Needles: 2.5mm

So I didn't get the gloves done for bonfire night but they are finished in time for the boyfriend and my trip to Brussels this week. I do like how they look with my grey coat and they'll be keeping my fingers toasty this weekend.

Knotty gloves

I was running round like mad after work today picking up Euros, a guide book and some holiday reading. I just finished The Girl Who Played with Fire and I now have The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest to look forward to. It's about 700 pages long so that and the three skeins of Manos del Uruguay lace that I picked up at lunchtime today for my wedding shawl should keep me busy on holiday. I've decided (I think) to knit the Aeolian shawl with a beaded border. I don't have any beads yet but I should be able to find some by the time I get to the point when I need them.

Pretty!

If you're going this weekend, I'll be there too. Well, in the little village about 30miles away where my parents live.

If you need any tips on exploring BXL, let me know and I'll see what I can remember.

Ooh have fun in Brussels :)
I was just passing through there a couple of weeks ago for a wedding elsewhere in Belgium. I really like Belgium, hopefully you will too.

Funky gloves!

Have a lovely time in Brussels! Those gloves should keep your hands nice and toasty and your knitting + reading material will be joyous additions to the trip.

Look forward to catching up with you when you're back!
