I have good news and bad news

The good news is that I have recently made two fingerless gloves. The bad news is that they are two entirely different fingerless gloves, and therefore, I do not actually have two matching fingerless gloves that I can wear at the same time. But I wanted to show them off anyway, so here they are:

As you can see, the differences between these two gloves are many. I crocheted the first one, following a pattern (from a Woman's Day knitting and crocheting magazine). I knit the second one, and it's my own design. The first one is made from some Red Heart that has been lingering in my stash, while the second one is made out of one of my favorite yarns, Lamb's Pride. In fact, the only thing that these two gloves have in common is that they are both right gloves. Ironically, their one unifying feature is exactly the thing that prevents me from wearing them both at the same time and pretending that hideously mismatched gloves were what I was going for.

So I suppose I should stop typing and go make a mate for at least one of these gloves...

I love those gloves - pink & purple are my 2 most adored colors.

You're so talented - keep up the great work!
