Threadknits Winner!

Dear Readers...

I won! I found out over the weekend that I won 2nd place for crochet in the Threadknits contest hosted by Threadless Shirts!

You can see all the winners here!

I'm super excited that my zombie suit won. He was a labor of love (with an emphasis on the labor).

My last Threadknits submission

Congrats to all the winners! Woo hoo!

It's awesome! You should have gotten the first place. How did you make the gloves? Do you have a pattern? Because now I'm working on something and I would like it to have hands and fingers but I don't know how to crochet them :S

Hi Tessel! Sorry I'm just now responding to your comment. I pretty much winged the gloves. I started with something like a chain of 6, connected the ends and single crocheted in a circle, increasing here and there until it fit over my fingers. I made the fingers all individually and then connected them all together, then from there made the base of the hand, which then turned into the sleeve. I hope that makes sense! :)

Thanks a lot! How did you connect the fingers btw, using a slipstitch?

Hi Tessel! Man, I suck at checking comments on this thing. Sorry!

I actually just started a new row on one of the fingers and then connected each finger to the row. As I crocheted each finger to the new row I did a slip stitch between the fingers as well. I hope that helps. :)
