Difficulty: Medium to advanced. Two colour Italian cast on is used, and the edge of the glove is worked in two colour double knitting. However, after the (in fact quite simple) cast on is done, each round is worked with one yarn at a time only, and so the double knitting is just knit or purl with slipped stitches between. It takes some practice to get the cast on and the corrugated ribbing right.

Needles: US 8 (5 mm) double pointed needles or size to obtain gauge. Or use a long circular needle and magic loop. Holder or piece of scrap yarn for thumb stitches.

Yarn: Zitron Luv & Lee, 100 % superwash merino, 109 yards or 100 m/50 g, two contrasting colours, 50g in each colour. Colour 300 (white) and 301 (grey) was used here. Fingerless gloves as shown in size M used in all 40 g of yarn.

Gauge: To get the intended fit, make sure you have correct gauge. Gauge is 18 sts to 4 inches (10 cm) in stockinette stitch. The two colour corrugated rib is 20 sts to 4 inches (10 cm). The body pattern is 19 sts to 4 inches (10 cm) and 10 rows to 1 inch (2.5 cm). Go up or down in needle size to obtain gauge.

Sizes and fit: Adult woman sizes S (M, L), glove measures 6 ¾ (7 ½, 8 ¼) inches or 17 (19, 21) cm hand circumference, intended to be worn with some negative ease, and 6 (6 ¾, 7 ½) inches or 15 (17, 19) cm wrist circumference. The pattern is very stretchy.

Changing yarn: If substituting yarn, you will need yarn with a lot of body. A single almost unspun wool like the recommended yarn is perfect.

Abbreviations used: k – knit, p – purl, wyif – with yarn in front, wyib – with yarn in back, tog – together, yo – yarn over, s – slip, st – stitch, sts – stitches.
