GAUGE:

Crochet Driving Gloves... Or Not Reviewed by Chelsea on 2009-11-15
I'm a pretty good crocheter. I've always been very good at figuring out instructions (Ikea instructions are NO problem for me); yet this pattern I found to be impossible! As soon as I got to the hand shaping it turned into a mess. I asked more experienced crocheters for help and I asked online for help; and still no one could figure out this pattern. The gloves are so cute, I'm totally in love with them; but this pattern needs a serious revision!
