Anjou Gloves
Use code WARMHANDS for 15% off till 20th Oct!
A new addition to the Anjou family~ The Anjou fingerless gloves are so fun and quick to knit; a great scrap buster project, perfect for on-the-go knitting, and ideal for gift-knitting.
The gloves are casted on at the wrist ribbing, knitted in 2x2 rib before starting slip-stitch pattern and working increases up the hand. The thumb section is then split from the rest of the glove; the two sections are worked separately, both finishing in 2x2 rib to mirror the wrist.
There are three elements to the gloves that are customisable:
Rolled edge at wrist ribbing: There is an optional rolled edge when casting on the gloves. The rolled edge version is stretchier; but you can forego the rolled edge if you wish.
Wrist ribbing gauge: Please choose the wrist ribbing needle size based on your wrist circumference and 2x2 rib gauge.
Length of gloves: Please measure the distance from your wrist to the bottom of your thumb to determine which length to knit. For a general idea, the slip-stitch pattern starts on the wrist for the long version, and starts at the palm for the short version.
Sizes: 1 ( 2 ) 3 ( 4 )
Palm Circumferences:
17.5 ( 19 ) 21 ( 23 ) cm / 7 ( 7½ ) 8¼ ( 9 ) ”
