Designed to match our Feelin’ Loopy Shawl, these elegant gloves are fun to make, and fun to wear! Construction starts with an I-cord and cable adorned wristband, and works up from there. Hand-shaping and a gusseted thumb create a warm and flattering fit. Make them full-fingered, or tipless - both instructions are provided.

This pattern is written for two sizes, Ladies Medium and Large, and can be made using either the Two Circular Needle or Magic Loop method.

Recommended Yarn: Fingering weight. Shown in Sock-aholic® Serene, available from Knitters Brewing Company, which is dyed by hand at our brewery using a wonderfully soft 4-ply Luxury Sock Yarn made from 50% FS Alpaca, 30% Fine Merino, and 20% Tencel. Each skein contains 470 yards, and knits at a gauge of 7-9 stitches per inch using size 1-2 needles. This yarn is fabulous for warm yet lightweight garments, and its softness makes it a pleasure to handle and wear.

Washing Instructions: Hand washing in cool water is recommended to prolong the life of any hand-knit or hand-crocheted item. Roll in a towel to remove excess water (do not twist or wring), and lay flat to dry away from direct sunlight.
