Frog Tree, Fingerless, Fair Isle

These fingerless gloves are one of my projects at the moment.These are a great example of what happens when I( and maybe some other knitters out there) get an idea, pick some pretty yarn and just start knitting. A plan you say; why would I have a plan ? Who needs a plan ? Pattern? What pattern? Who needs patterns? I'm sure I can figure it out. No problem. Well, in all honesty these did not get me into much trouble and I love doing colorwork. Although ;they are a bold fashion statement, and I mean NOT subtle. Sometimes ;in fashion ,you better be ready with attitude , confidence, fearlessness, beauty(comes from inside) and guts to pull something off. Do these gloves warrant all of this? Probably not, but I bet someone could pull them off on the catwalk. Hey I can dream.
