wip: missoni opera gloves

finished my first missoni-esque opera glove last night while watching the PR finale. (damn that jeffery! i just hate the fact that i love his clothes. he's such a little prick. and i hate the way the producers are manipulating us into believing that he's gonna get booted off the show. AS IF.) this is my first glove ever, and much easier than i imagined. i had visions of going crazy knitting those teeny tiny fingers in the round. this shot is pre-blocking. blocking it is opening up the scallops at the top quite nicely. at first, i wasn't sure about the "patchwork" look of the striping on the fingers. but now, as vincent says, it just turns me on. and patchwork is the new knitting--right? keep your fingers crossed that second sock syndrome doesn't carry over to gloves.
