notes.pattern.dave.gloves.02.000


...

restarted dave's gloves again. and this time they'll fit. i swear! i redid the calculations and so it should work now. if not, it'll be so much closer. it looks really good this time. i like it in this gauge. it's on zeros. and i really like the stitch size and it's making a nice fabric. and it's _so_ shiny. @_@

so, pattern notes!
