I love the idea of the chocolate lace for your glove. I think it will look great.
As far as relacing for the first time, I would definitely find some beaters to work on first. Get some good, smooth surface, bent nose needle nose pliers. And the oldest and most repetitive advice, but still the best is just do a tiny bit at time- pull a little out, and follow it with your needle- I cannot over emphasize just a little bit at a time. Sometimes, it may look very easy, or trying to hurry, so you will pull out a whole bunch, and before you know it, you have no idea what to do. Just take it very slowly, and be patient.
Do a section, put the glove down, and take a break for a few minutes. That’s what I do, especially if I am frustrated.
That’s my two cents. Good luck-can’t wait to see pictures.
Give us the gate key. I have no gate key.
Fezzik, tear his arms off. Oh, you mean this gate key!
