And Gloves

Fingerless gloves. I think fingerless gloves will be more practical when sailing than the usual kind. I adapted my favourite pattern, Leaves from ValKnitting. As with the socks, I twisted the cables left on one glove and right on the other. The palm is plain stocking stitch on both.

  1. This kind of gloves is great to wear on casual, thin gloves to make it warmer. It's more comfortable then big, clumsy gloves :-)

  2. Cabled ropes in the mittens as well as the socks - very appropriate for a sailor!

  3. I just bought some the other day it got chilly here in the mornings :) Nice cable stitch, for as many as you have done, the thread must be finer than I thought.

  4. I love the cables twisted differently, it really makes the gloves look like a pair!
    ( I will not knot gloves, now, I will. It knit gloves now, I will keep doing my Christmas tatting)

  5. A question that has been dogging me .... did you make the socks & gloves on circular needles ? If yes, then making cables must be even more difficult considering these have a small circumference ?
    I like the set :-)

    1. No, I use double pointed needles. Seems much more straight forward to me.

  6. How sensible, I like the idea of reversing the cable.
