82: he shoots, he scores fingerless gloves!

Nic's birthday present = custom-designed arm-warmers for road hockey, with special re-enforced palm. I must like him more than I let on, because I even swatched for this - and I swatch for no man. Or maybe I just love the yarn, a brand-new Patons Classic Merino variegated in greens and browns. My knitting is so camo, I can't find it on the couch!

These were designed to stretch a lot so they could be worn over thick black gloves.

I made notes as I went, but I'll wait until someone expresses an interest in it before I post the pattern. I like them very much regardless!
