A few months ago, someone asked me to tat fingerless gloves. I was busy at the time and said so, but the idea remained at the back of my mind. When I was researching mignonette stitch, I saw a photo on pininterest of gloves in mignonette stitch that linked back to Tatted Webs. Wonderful tatting there, I haven't seen the site before. I didn't want to copy the gloves there, just use them for inspiration. I've done one glove, it has taken me a few days, all the while wondering whether what I visualised was going to work. As it is, this glove fits me, but I have very small hands and rather wonder if it will fit the person who originally wanted gloves. I wrote down each step so that I can make another one to match.
This glove looks very pretty! I'm sure with some adjustment, you'll make a pair that will fit the special request.
ReplyDeleteWow- that's wonderful!!! Will you share what you wrote up?
ReplyDeleteOk, once I've finished and made sure I can follow my own instructions!
DeleteAbsolutely stunning!!! :)
ReplyDeleteWeell....maybe not QUITE the same, or you'll have two left hands!
ReplyDeleteI think they're very elegant, and would look stunning in black. What size thread did you use?
size 20, Milford, a well twisted thread. The back and front are the same, so I think I can make them the same.
DeleteWow! That is a gorgeous glove!
ReplyDeleteSo pretty and wonderful tatting!
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely some WOW tatting! I have no confidence at all with mignonette tatting, so doing gloves is beyond me! Wonderful work!
ReplyDeleteThanks stunning, do please write up the pattern.
ReplyDeleteHi Tatskool, I have written up the pattern, there's a link to it on the right hand sidebar.
DeleteI clicked both links and all I get is an error message? I would love the pattern
