Fall Glove Pattern

Bear with me as I have not written a pattern this complicated before (even if I have made something more complicated...  : - )

Skills:

Crochet: slip st, single crochet, half double crochet
Knitting: Rib knit 2 x 2

Materials:

2 regular size 8 knitting needles                                         
1 size 9 crochet needle
1 darning needle
scissors
1 ball of Carron Simply Soft Chocolate yarn       A

1/4 ball of Red Heart Classic in Dark Sage         B
1/4 ball of Red Heart Classic in Copper             C


Directions:
With knitting needles, cast on 32 sts in A.
Rows 2-12, rib knit 2 x 2 in A.
Row 13, Bind off in rib knit 2 x 2 in A.
Using darning needle, sew side seams together with an invisible vertical seam.
Row 14.  Turn cuff inside out and crochet with crochet needle and color C, from the cast on row of cuff, in a single crochet until you have 29 sts evenly around cuff and join the round with color B.
Row 15.  Turn glove right side out again and half double crochet in B in both top sts.
Row 16.  Half double crochet in B in top stitch only so that there is a line in color B in the row beneath.
Row 17.  Join row 16 with color A and chain 3, attach into both top sts with a slip stitch and repeat till the end of row and join round with color B.
Row 18.  Single Crochet in color B in the back post of the previous row of color A.  Join round.
Row 19.  Half double crochet in color B into both top sts of previous row.  Join round with color C.
Row 20.  Single crochet with color C into first both top sts of previous row and next stitch into just front top stitch so that you make a v with C into the previous row.  Join Round.
Row 21.  Single crochet with color C into both top sts of previous row and join round.

Making Thumb hole:
Slip stitch forward into next 3 stitches and then chain 7 and attach chain to 6th stitch from chain backwards.

Row 22.  Chain 1 and then single crochet into the chain by making the stitches go entirely underneath the chain of 7 (thumb hole). Single crochet into first stitch to left of thumb hole and continue around until you meet the 1st chain of the thumb hole.  Join Round with color A.
Row 23.  Half double crochet with color A into both top sts of previous row.  Join round.
Row 24.  Chain 3 and half double crochet into 3rd st from chain.  Chain 1, skip a st and half double into next stitch and repeat until you end round.  Join round.
Row 25.  Half double crochet with color A into both top sts of previous row.  Join round with color B.
Row 26.  Chain 2 with color B, skip a stitch and attach with slip stitch into next st.  Repeat till end of round.  Join round with color A.
Row 27.  Half double crochet next round into back post of last row of color A in color A.  Not Green Row.  So that green sticks out and new row is partially behind green row.
Row 28.  Single crochet with color A into both top sts of previous row and join round.

Making finger holes:

With color A, half double crochet into bottom loop(inside of glove) of previous row and chain 3.  Attach with slip stitch across the inside of the glove, into the bottom of previous row just like other side, chain 2 and slip stitch into top stitch of inside of glove.  Half double crochet over the chain just created from one side of glove to other for 3 sts and slip stitch into top of glove on original side.  Slip st next 3 stitches from left to right then repeat whole process 2 more times and tie off.
Row 29.  Using color C, slip stitch across top of glove and tie off.


Finished project should look like this:
