Fingerless Gloves From A Can

Can I make gloves from a can? Yes, I can!

These are the fingerless gloves I finished making today using my knitting loom made from a pineapple can, electrical tape and cotter pins (you can see this loom in my other projects). I think the size of a pineapple can turned into a knitting loom works well for most gloves. The blue, round Knifty Knitter seems too big for gloves, and the Knifty Knitter flower loom seems too small. I really have no idea how long it took me to make these, I just worked on them off and on over a period of time. I also learned a new method for making the thumb holes that made it a little more difficult, but worthwhile. I found the yarn at a thrift store so these were very inexpensive for me to make.
