Crochet Challenge

Crochet 50 pair of fingerless gloves for the fall craft shows; that's my challenge.  I crocheted a pair and then sold it.  So, started again and now I have 3 pair done - 47 pair to crochet.  I created the pattern myself and I have to say it goes pretty fast.  Some yarns do much better showing the stitches than others.  Since it's a one-size-for-all pattern, I hope to be successful in selling them at the craft shows.  Here are a few pics I want to share with you.

Off of the Hook - Cashmere and Silk Fingerless Gloves

While traveling by car Tuesday to Nashville, Tennessee for a family road trip, I took along a crochet project that I had just started; a 10/J bamboo crochet hook and a muffin of some light blue recycled sweater cashmere and silk yarn (see 70% Cashmere post).  Off of the hooks came two fingerless gloves, a matching set.  I added matching motifs to the back of each (top of hand) with a big eyed plastic needle and the same cashmere and silk yarn.  There is much more yarn, so there may be a matching scarf in the very near future. I have been collecting glove molds for some years now, and they are the perfect models for my fingerless gloves don't you think? They were very cooperative!
