These were designed specifically for my mom, who is ALWAYS cold. They have a standard ribbed cuff, a short ribbing at the top, and are bordering by a frilly picot cluster. Cuff, trim and thumb are worked in individual rounds, joining after each. Palm is worked in a continuous round.

The body of the gloves are the waistcoat stitch, which is also known as crochet stockinette or split single crochet. Creates a soft but very dense, warm fabric that maintains flexibility. Gives the appearance of knit. To create the waistcoat stitch, you complete a single crochet just as you normally would, however the difference between the two stitches is in where you first insert your hook before drawing up a loop. Instructions are included in the pattern.

You should also know basic FPHDC, BPHDC, SC and magic circle.

Sizing is easily changed by increasing or decreasing hook size. No calculations needed to adjust.

You’ll use about 1/2 skein of your main color (any U.S. 4-ply worsted weight acrylic), and a little bit less than an ounce of the contrast color. Contrast color is for the trim, and the two cute and easy flowers that are sewn on the tops/back of the glove.

The pattern and terms are U.S.

Thanks for downloading my pattern. I hope you enjoy it!
