Love these! I wish I didn't have to give them away... but maybe I'll make another pair in the recommended "Oatmeal" color later. They are very squishy, but I can't tell how warm they'll be. Usually for gloves or mittens, a needle at least two sizes smaller than the recommended size is used. For these, the needle is the same or one bigger than the recommended 6-7 US needles. Of course, the cables tighten things up considerably.
The garter stitch palm side makes them curl in a decidedly hand-like way, which makes them adorable when they're just sitting on the table.
Another rock-star pattern from Jared Flood!
