Have you seen the glove patterns, v8311 and v7949, that have been put out by the Vogue pattern company this season? They are so beautiful!

I have been searching for years for an all vinyl gardening glove. That used to be all they had years ago, now you can’t find them anywhere. So now I will try making my own instead. By having a vinyl glove, your hands don’t get wet and cold when planting. I don’t care for the knit garden gloves that have the finger tips dipped in rubber, they do keep you dry, but you can’t feel very well through the thick rubber.

I would also love to have a pair of lace gloves. I have absolutely no use for them, and therefore could never justify buying some, but I’m sure I have enough lace scraps to make some for “free.” Except for the cost of the pattern, of course! Vogue patterns are currently on sale at the local Hancock’s Fabric store for $3 something–a really good buy.

APRIL 2009 UPDATE:
I found some stores selling ladies gloves. They are far more reasonable than I thought. They didn’t have vinyl gloves for the garden though. Still the lace gloves are gorgeous and some are less than $10.
