Way too big but a good test for different knits.
The cuff is 1x1 ribbing with acrylic yarn and the main body is e wrapped with chenille as I wanted it to be light and breathable but still fluffy. The end of the glove is ended off with two rows of purls to try to look less like it was incomplete and more like a style, but that didn't really work haha.
I am also not a fan of the thumb hole but it works.
That's a palm vest
These match my diabetic socks perfectly. Kind of want the set now..
How did you do the thumb hole? I'm on the same adventure right now. I knit in the round up to the thumb, then did a few reciprocal rows, then picked back up in the round. I left way too many rows open, so I think I have a plan going forward to fix it. But i was also thinking maybe I'd cast on a few slip stitches around the edge.
Exactly as you did it: I stopped doing the full round for a few rows, then continue after the hole is large enough. I also did more than I should have, and earlier than I should have, but knit stuff is basically a fabric so some regular sewing can be used to correct mistakes if you are careful.
