Fusion Gloves
Fusion Gloves pattern is designed in two versions: with or without fingers.
Both versions are worked in the rounds, seamlessly from cuff to fingers.
First the cuff is worked in 1/1 rib, then the outside of glove is worked in honeycomb, when inside has a stockinette stitch.
The thumb is shaped by increases, and other fingers are shaped by pick-up stitches.
Fingerless version ends with a Bind-off, the version with fingers ends with pull of the yarn through.
