These gloves came about as, and I quote: “the hand knit version of the nylon gloves you can find in a dollar store.”

I wanted a pair of gloves that were lightweight, but very snug to the hand, perfect for spring or early fall, or, to layer under other mittens or gloves during winter. 

The Pine Cone Stitch pattern uses only knits and purls to create a fun, textured stitch that I instantly fell in love with!  So it seemed only natural to put these two ideas together to knit up a pair of lightweight gloves in fingering-weight yarn.

The Sample was knit in two skeins of *Knit Picks Twill Fingering in "Patchwork Heather" and is shown in size XS.

Pattern Notes:

These gloves are knit in the round from the cuff up, with the thumb gusset increased in pattern. The fingers are  worked seperately in the round, starting with the little finger, while the rest of the stitches for the fingers are placed on scrap yarn or a stitch holder. Once the fingers are finished, the thumb stitches are picked up from scrap yarn or a stitch holder, and then worked in the round.

This pattern has written instructions, and the stitch pattern is both written and charted. This pattern also has an accessible large print option that is compatible with screen-reading software. This option includes only the written instruction.
