Mermaid Knits

I know it's summer and too early for arm-warming, but I couldn't wait to post these scaled beauties!
I am a knitter, though nowhere near skilled enough to write my own pattern. These are derived from a sock pattern, but I like the gloves much more! They remind me of a picture I saw a few months ago of a mermaid who had scales on her forearms. For some reason that picture had been coming to my mind over the last week or so, and then I found these!
