Knit Your Comics pattern from May 2016

This is a transformative work of knitted fanart.

Garnet’s gauntlets were a natural choice for a KYC. Frustratingly, they were filled with fabrication challenges. How do you get diagonal lines? What about the star on top? Do I really have to make gloves, or can I just make fingerless gloves? It took me a few attempts experimenting and finding a pattern that works.

The gloves are deceptively simple in appearance, but require color changes, the kitchener stitch, i-cord, applique, and duplicate stitch. Therefore, they’ve earned themselves a C for Challenging rating on my scale.
