Notes

August 12th: Started to knit first glove.
August 15th: Finished first glove and started second.
August 18th: Finished second glove.

Mostly I liked this project, althought I don’t like to knit gloves very much. It is irritating to knit every finger separately. My gauge wasn’t quite right so I had to little modify the pattern. But I like that these gloves look out beutiful.
I used 34 g yarn to these.

Modifications:

  • I added beads with crochet hook.
  • I made thumb gusset: After 10 rounds after rib I increased 2 s in the both edges of the thumb gusset every 3rd round 8 times. In the first increasing round I had s between the increases. 2 rounds after last increases I put thumb stitches to the yarn waiting and increased 1 s in place of them.
  • In the ring finger, middle finger and index finger I had 17 s and in the thumb I had 19 s.
