Over the weekend I made these fun (slightly useless) fingerless gloves! They are pretty tough (in a beat you up kind of way) ... and they were really easy to make.
If you really want some instant gratification then I would go for these.
The pattern was basic and simple and you can follow this video on howcast.com
Again you can see this all on the video above but just for a quick reference:
for each glove:
leaving 8 inches of yarn(for stitching later) cast on 24
knit 15 rows in a basic rib stitch(knit 2, purl 2, repeat till end)
knit 12 rows in stockinette stitch (knit one row purl one row, repeat)
knit 4 rows in rib stitch (knit 2, purl 2, repeat till end)
cast off following the rib pattern leave 8 inches of string for sewing
fold the glove in half and sew down 2 inches finish and knot
from the bottom sew up leaving a whole for your thumb finish and knot.
I made some of my own a while back. They are fabulous and prefect for style and warmth in my freezing office!
ReplyDeleteThank you for the comment Danielle! I must say I have felt pretty great about wearing these, what color did you make yours?
