runnyeyes, i'd go up to at least a 4.5mm needle for aran weight wool. if it's going to make it too wide could you adjust the pattern? i finished one of the gloves - not that happy with it but it will have to do. i've also knitted a cycling ear warmer ravelry.com which i'm happier with. tomorrow i will knit the second glove, or at least make a start on it. i bought some of the fyberspates dk in a shocking pink from my lys, it's gorgeous. mil will be getting a scarf/shawl for her birthday in early jan

re, just looked at the pattern link - not very adjustable!!! (but gorgeous) have you got enough wool? (sorry you've probably checked but i'd hate for you to run out after lots of hard work).

Chickie, have you separated all your colours? I organise mine with a piece of card with holes punched in, they sometimes provide it in the kit. Do it in good light and label the colours on the card with the colour name and symbol. It can be difficult as often colours are very similar!
