Product Details

I created these on my way back from the Pittsburg Knit and Crochet Festival. I have never designed or even thought about the construction of fingerless gloves… but this just happened to me… Garnet is my little miracle ! Here is how I determined how many stitches to cast on for a perfect fit. I measured my lower wrist circumference: 8” and upper wrist: 7” I took final circumference as 7” since I was going to use 2x2 ribbing and that fabric stretches a bit. My guage was 5 sts per inch so that gives me a total of 35 sts to cast on. I used 36 to get an even number of stitches for the 2x2 ribbing. The broadest part of my hand was 8.5” so I figured an increase of 6 stitches after the cuff would give a good fit and it did. Finished Size: Lower wrist 8” Upper wrist 7” (Please write to me at essknits@gmail.com for more sizes.) Materials: Yarn: Simply Soft Caron Needles: US Size 6 Double points Gauge: 5 sts per inch Stitches Used: Start: 2 rows of garter st
