Been asked to make some childrens fingerless gloves.
I normally make these.
So I made the pattern but added Lycra and reduced the tension by 1 setting.
This is the result, a very stretch smaller pair of fingerless gloves.
Pattern
On a 84 cylinder, tension 6 for larger glove 5 for smaller glove (plus Lycra)
20 rows 1 x 1 rib ( 2 row selvedge)
30 rows 3 x 1
row 31 scrap yarn for 8 stitches (thumb hole)
20 rows 3 x 1
10 rows 1 x 1
Pick up cast off stitches and knit a rib bind off.
Pick up top and bottom stitches from scrap yarn 8 stitches, pick up 1 stich for smaller glove or 2 for larger glove either end giving 18 or 20 stitches. Knit with needles 1 x 1 rib for 10 rows. Cast off in rib.
