Texel Gloves
If you love cozy hand-knit accessories but prefer the convenience of fingerless mittens, you'll adore my Fingerless Texels pattern! Both this pattern and the Fingerless Texels are conveniently available for purchase in the comprehensive Texel eBook, which is perfect for knitters looking to expand their collection of unique designs.*
Named after the stunning Texel island in the North Sea, the stitch patterns featured in these beautiful gloves are inspired by the mesmerizing waves of the sea. You can knit them in serene sea and beach colors, just like the example shown here, or unleash your creativity by opting for a vibrant, abstract color palette. This is a perfect opportunity to use up all those little leftover bits of wool; why not make each row of waves a different hue to create a truly one-of-a-kind pair?
The Texel pattern comes in various sizes to suit all knitters: Women’s XS/S, Women’s M, Women’s L/Men’s S, and Men’s M/L, ensuring a comfortable fit for hand circumferences of 17, 19, 20.5, and 22.5cm (= 6", 7", 8", 8.5”) above the thumb. The stitch pattern has excellent stretch, providing a snug yet flexible fit for hands of the same size or larger.
This versatile pattern includes two delightful options for the cuff: choose a charming scallop design for a loose, elegant fit, or opt for a practical, snug-fitting ribbed cuff for those chillier days. The choice is yours!
Designed for fingering weight yarn, these Texel gloves are not only stylish but also a wonderfully functional addition to any wardrobe. Whether you're out for a morning coffee or taking a brisk walk along the beach, these fingerless mittens will keep your hands warm while allowing for easy movement.
