me
Needles & yarn
US 1½ - 2.5 mm

Notes

Fingers
Decrease one stitch each side of the finger just after the first knuckle.

Shape the top of the fingers when you’ve reached the tip.

1st finger: 28 rows/10
2nd finger: 33 rows/22
3rd finger: 29 rows/18
4th finger: 20 rows/14

Thumb
The thumb is knitted as written. 22 rows before shaping.

Will use a variegated brown yarn as background :)

The gloves turned out very pretty, but I can see why traditionally people would choose a light background for fair isle patterns. It would make the patterns pop more than with a dark background. The next fair isle project I do I’ll try a natural/light background.
