I designed these gloves to match the Masala hat by Meera Kothari Cho I knit my youngest sister for our xmas exchange. She saw her hat and asked, "but where are my fingerless gloves"? I couldn't find any designs to match, so voila! The Tikka fingerless gloves were born, a perfect match for the Masala hat! Out of one skein of Lion Brand Homespun, I made her hat, a rolled brim hat for my daughter, these gloves, and I still have a bit left over!
