Knitty knitty bitty

Here are some examples I knitted up. They seem like basic pieces, I wanted to learn how to increase and decrease stitches to form shaping to the garment. The gloves were very basic to do simple rectangle/square with a buttonhole. The beanie was also rather easy to knit up, and the braids were joined into the knitting.
The singlet is made from strips of calico knitted up, I found the arm hole shaping to be rather easy, however the neck shaping was difficult at the time because I didn’t fully understand how to finish it off as this was my first attempt. What I love about the singlet top is that it’s very chunky from the calico.
