Any sewing saved is good news :) As for the 'purling over 14 thumb sts' I have now amended the pattern to read more clearly that the 14 sts are the ones from the stitch holder, and this process is what partially attaches the previously knitted thumb piece. Thank you for pointing this out as it didn't make very much sense before! Hi Emily,

In the last row, you cast off 8. Are you now casting on new stitches to make a hole for the thumb? I’m also a little bit confused by the “purl over 14 thumb stitches”.

What kind of needles are you suggesting? DPNs/Circulars or straights with seaming at the end? Is there grafting at the end for the thumb pieces? This looks great.
