Stripey Fingerless Gloves

 

I remember as a kid, my Dad used to say "if you hold Marie's hand she'll walk forever with you" … I think the same goes for Laney except now that it's mid winter, those little hands are getting super cold, so the solution was to make her some gloves.

So Laney & I made these. She picked the colours then proceeded to choose the order that they went in. She even sat with me & tried to crochet it herself but she's still a bit too young for the co-ordination side of that.

These fingerless gloves were made from my scrappy stash of 220, I really love this stuff as the colours are so vibrant.

No pattern was used. I measured the length that I wanted it (against her arm), then the circumference of the widest part (at her thumb knuckle) then measured from the top down to the base of her thumb as that's were I'd finish seaming for the thumb hole ..and yes, I crocheted this flat and seamed it together. Very easy and I think I need a pair now!
