G'day
I'm thinking ahead to winter and although I don't need gloves (or other heavy winter clothes where I live) I sometimes need them when I travel to colder areas, hence my reason for making a sherpa/suede hooded jacket and this idea has progressed to making gloves from some (hopefully) scraps/leftovers.
The pattern for the jacket is KwikSew #3259.
Has anyone made gloves? any special tips? I'm assuming mittens would be simpler but I've never worn mittens and think they might be too restrictive? The sherpa/suede was an off-season bargain and is black on both sides, but the price was right and seeing I won't get to wear it too often I wasn't prepared to break the bank on this project, just for the sake of colour. My preference would have been natural coloured sherpa with caramel suede.
I've googled and found this site and it seems to have lots of helpful info but knowing some of you live in cold climates I thought that maybe someone has made gloves at some time?
