It Only took 3 years

I finally finished these gloves!  I started these when I started working at Jo Ann.  They are made with Patons North America Silk Bamboo.  I didn't like the amount of knots in the yarn.  It's only 102 yards per skein but there would be at least 3 knots.  These took forever because while I was working there wasn't much time to knit.  Cables aren't hard but they take time and some concentration to make them right.  I am really glad though to finished them finally.  I'm trying really hard this year to finish up some of my long lasting projects (ones that are 2 years old and still not done).  Pattern:   http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/sweet-partings
