So I bound off normally. However, I had added some rounds after the thumb and now the thumb is approximately in the middle of the glove. So with a BO that looks like the CO I always have to stop and figure out which end to put my hand into. A unique looking BO would have avoided this problem. Maybe that was why the author chose a different BO in the first place.<BR/>Next time I plan on making the wrist portion a little longer.knitbysuehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14220533192979968820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6230968882228760846.post-11898592617546464652007-09-15T17:34:00.000-07:002007-09-15T17:34:00.000-07:00I have made the Fetching Mitts and used the picot ...I have made the Fetching Mitts and used the picot bind off.
