Bewitching Hour
Are chilly horse-drawn pumpkin carriages sending shivers down your spine? Or perhaps you’ve found yourself in a drafty cottage deep in the woods or a tall stone tower? No need to fret—these elegant gloves are the perfect accessory for any enchanted princess, keeping her warm and stylish beneath a long, flowing cape. Whether you’re setting off to a whimsical ball or merely taking a stroll through a magical forest, these gloves have you covered.
The thoughtfully designed long cuffs are not only aesthetically pleasing but also functional, effectively sealing out the wind and cold from your coat sleeves. With a chic fit that’s ideal for all noble adventures, these gloves combine practicality with timeless elegance.
Construction Notes This stunning glove pattern begins at the center back of the hand, creating a beautifully tailored fit. As you work up the twisted rib cuff, you'll transition seamlessly into stockinette stitch. The intricate design features stunning cable columns intertwined with delicate purls, gradually tapering down until only one elegant column remains up the back of the hand. Experience the satisfaction of knitting a project that showcases your skills and creativity!
