I've never tried making gloves. How do you do the fingers? Do you use tiny doublepointed needles?
What I like about felting is that you can knit or crochet and it comes out looking great. I found a felted crochet book that has come cute projects in it. I tried two of the purse patterns. Once they are felted (in the washing machine) you can't tell if they were knitted or crocheted. I was happy about that because I'm a better crocheter than knitter.
There are a bunch of free felted hat patterns online. http://www.knittingpatterncentral.com/directory/hats.php
My prayers are with your family this evening.
Fingers are just like thumbs. IMO, it's tedious with gloves, instead of two thumbs, you have 10 little circles to do. Yes, dps are used.
Bump to find tomorrow...
