Forest Fairy Gloves pattern is out and you can get the Forest Fairy Bundle at a discounted price! €10 for both patterns and previous purchases count towards the promotion!

The Forest Fairy gloves match the Forest Fairy sweater!
The pattern includes charts, a photo tutorial and row-by-row instructions for sizes S - M/L - XL and it is easily customisable.

It is knitted using 2mm (US size 0) circular needles and Mayflower Cotton Merino yarn, but most fingering weight or sock yarns will do.

You will need anywhere between 300 and 500 yards of yarn for both gloves, so I recommend getting two to three 50g skeins.
Two for sizes S and M/L, and three for size XL.

The gauge is 40x50 sts in a 10x10 cm or 4x4’’ square.
If you can’t meet the gauge, try downsizing your needles and go from there.

Gloves require a tight tension for crisp results and these ones in particular incorporate the k1p1 ribbing stitch which makes them very stretchy! You can easily increase or decrease stitches for thicker or thinner fingers.

Gloves represent a small project, they knit up quickly and make an amazing gift.
I recommend this pattern for intermediate and advanced knitters, but I think it is detailed enough for beginners as well.
If you are a beginner and you find you need additional help tackling these gloves - I will happily assist you!

The techniques used for this pattern that you should be familiar with (or learn as you go if you are a beginner) are the following:
