A perfect quick-knit gift for yourself, a co-worker and that special
someone! These fingerless gloves will brighten a chilly day, indoors and
out. Knit them in bright colours, as shown, or use a more mellow blend
for slightly conservative tastes.
The pattern contains 2 sizes and 2 very different looks. Using the
genius of slipped stitches, creating these colourful gloves never
requires knitting with more than one colour at a time. Add to that the
clever shaping at the wrist – which provides a great fit – and you have a
pattern you’ll use again and again!
Although very similar, both patterns are fully written out making it
very easy to follow instructions.
