Holey Gloves

 

 


This uses almost the same pattern as the holey scarf. Because of construction and the materials it's made of, it should  fit most hands...


Gauge should be 10 sts by 6 rows per sq. inch in k1/p1 ribbing, slightly stretched. 

Used were Size 6/4mm straight knitting needles, and about 1/4 of a skein of sock yarn. (Loops & Threads Luxury Sock in color 'Crocuses')

 Simply cast on 41 stitches and follow the chart. When finished, fold in half, and seam up, leaving space for a thumb hole. If you wish, you can sew together the material between the fingers, making small fingerholes, and making sure that they'll fit snugly. 

On the plus side, if they stretch, it really shows off the pattern :D
