Pretty Damsel

Hello and thank you for stopping by our knitting community!

We are excited to present a versatile and stylish glove pattern that includes comprehensive charts, a detailed photo tutorial, and row-by-row instructions for a range of sizes: S, M/L, and XL. This pattern is highly customizable, making it perfect for knitters looking to put their own creative spin on a classic accessory.

For this project, you will need 2.50 mm (1.5 US size) circular needles, or you can use double-pointed needles if that’s your preference. The gloves are knitted using Mayflower Easy Care Tweed yarn, although any fingering weight or sock yarn works equally well. In fact, you can explore some fantastic yarn alternatives that we’ve listed in the pattern, giving you the chance to fully express your style.

You will require between 65 grams and 80 grams of yarn to complete both gloves, so we recommend purchasing two 50 g skeins or one 100 g skein, depending on the yarn you choose. This ensures you have ample yarn to achieve the perfect fit and finish for your gloves.

The gauge needed for this pattern is 40x50 stitches in a 10x10 cm (4x4’’) square. If you find yourself unable to meet the gauge, don’t worry! Simply downsize your needles to 2.25 mm or even 2 mm, and you should be able to achieve the desired tension.

This knitting pattern is ideal for intermediate and advanced knitters, yet we believe the detailed instructions make it accessible for dedicated beginners as well. If you are new to knitting and encounter challenges while making these gloves, don’t hesitate to reach out — I’m more than happy to provide assistance and guidance!
