Turning Old Socks into Gloves

A couple days ago my daughter was wearing some old socks on her hands. She had cut off the foot part of the sock and cut a hole for the thumb and had some instant fingerless gloves and It put the idea into my noggin that I might be able to re-purpose old socks this way. So yesterday I came across some old socks that my son had given me. They were some that a friend had given us a year ago and they were 100% wool, but had been washed and had shrank. They were also felted, but not on purpose, so they were really thick and too small for anyone in the house to wear. I don't know why I hung onto them, but they were definitely ready to be remade into something useful!
First, I cut off the bottom of the sock to just above the heel increases and then cut a hole for my thumb. 
Next, I pulled up stitches with my size 5.0 mm double pointed needles, using some worsted weight yarn. I evenly spaced the stitches around the glove, but didn't need to count them. I knit the first round in stockinette and then did four more rounds using k1,p1 ribbing. Then I bound them off.
Then I used the same worsted weight yarn and a size "H" crochet hook and crocheted one time around the thumb hole in single crochets. I weaved in the ends and I had a fingerless glove! Here's a picture of the finished item!
