Fingerless Gloves

A friend of mine had a well loved, worn out pair of fingerless gloves. The llama motif makes me think they were made in South America but I don't really know. I made a new pair for Rick but left out the best part, the little beast of burden. It isn't possible to do intarsia in the round and I thought the trial embroidered llama looked lame. As is often the case, the originals cannot be properly replaced but the new ones should keep his hands warm.
