I feel as though I fight with these fingerless mitts everytime I make a pair. I'm on my third pair and my copy of the pattern looks battleworn. The instructions are not clear enough for me. I need everything spelled out in exact detail and I have to make notes on my copy for every problem I encounter. And I cannot count garter stitch rows. I know that each ridge should count for 2 rows, but I envariably end up with the incorrect side facing me. What a mess I am. So far the 2 pair I have completed are really nice, but in each pair one glove is bigger than the other. So now I have an outline right on the pattern of the first glove in this third effort traced right there to match up to with each glove before I sew them up. I am not sewing the first up until the second is finished to make sure they are the same size. I will win this round for sure ;)
