Fetching

Using the same yarn as the Claudia hat, I cast on for a pair of Fetching fingerless gloves. Had to move down to a US size 3 needle so they would fit right.

As you can see, the edges curl and I can't steam them because the yarn is almost certainly 100% acrylic... still, I like them. I've only finished one and started the second one. I'll post a new picture when they're both done.

Cute! Would wet-blocking help the edges at all?

I would not worry about blocking the edges at all. I noticed with mine (after I steam blocked them) that they were absolutely perfect, right up until I wore them for any length of time. They tend to curl up a little as you wear them, anyway.
I so love this pattern. Great job!
