Winter in, um, June?

Remember the sock I started during our ill-fated camping trip? I finished the ribbed leg a few nights ago and stuck it over my hand just for fun. (Do you do that too?) I realized that I would make a great glove or mitten cuff. I've never made a glove before and have been wanting to for a while now.

I feel slightly silly knitting a wool glove in June - strange, since now that I think about it I didn't feel silly knitting a wool sock in June. But the plus side is that I will actually have a completed pair for wool gloves ready and waiting for winter.

I'm using the numbers from The Handy Book of Patterns , and sort of fudging things to fit the knitting I had already done.
