These gloves might be better described as wrist warmers as they are designed to have maximum finger and thumb movement while providing comforting warmth. They knit up really quickly and worked flat on straight needles. I wanted to include an easy glove pattern because although knitting in the round is easy once you master it, knitting with double-pointed needles for the first time can be a little bit tricky. This subtle color contrast detail of the Fair Isle pattern could be omitted completely or enhanced further by using a vibrant color scheme.
