Welcome back to WIP Wed, and the last WIP Wed post of 2019 (how did that happen! Eeek!)
The gloves will be mirrored, like many of my mitten/glove designs are. I like having the slipped-stitch palm, both for texture and for durability. So far, I haven't knit two right hand gloves, and I'm rather hoping I don't! Oh, and yes, this glove doesn't quite fit my hand properly -- this is Christmas Knitting, and it's going to someone with larger hands then me, so my attempts at modelling leave a bit to be desired.
Yarn is the now-discontinued Fleece Artist Merino 2/6 in "Spruce". It's 100% Merino, and it's knitting up quite nice and dense on *2mm (US 0) needles. It pools quite differently on the fingers then the body of the glove, no surprise, but I'm still happy with it! And yes, I still have ends to weave in, but those won't take more then a minute or two!
Well, that's it for 2019! So, a question, to round out the year on a high point -- what did you folks accomplish in 2019 that you're proud of? It can be anything -- share in the comments below!

Well, this means I have exactly a week to finish the Dragon Scale Gloves, and I'm doing relatively ok, with one glove done, and a second glove started!
These gloves are based on the same motif as my Silver Dragon Cowl, (and yes, I will be publishing these gloves at a future date!)
