Pattern 4: Inspired by Alba
This pattern has been designed as an easy entry into two colour glove knitting. It has a simple chequerboard pattern and if worked in the recommended tweedy yarn or a similar one, any inconsistencies in the knitting will be forgiven. The start of the little finger is not dropped in this pattern, making it simpler in construction.
