You cannot sew gloves by machine

Or, at least, I can't. (I'm sure if I had special machines, I could.)

                

I made this with a ponte knit, or double knit, I can't remember. It's theoretically what gloves were made out of back when people wore gloves on a daily basis. However, the fabric I found is much lighter weight and stretchier.

Interesting fact learned: my left hand is bigger than my right, which is why the thumb is ripped out.

I'm going to see if I can find some heavy thread and try to sew a pair by hand. Also, I'm scrapping my pattern and making a pattern from my favorite pair of vintage gloves that are absolutely trashed (holes, snags) and too small which I just cut apart. We'll see how that goes.
