These handcrafted gloves not only keep your hands warm but also allow for full finger mobility, making them ideal for various activities, from texting to crafting.
To create your stunning Shetland gloves, you will need high-quality materials: Jamieson & Smith 2ply Jumper Weight yarn (which is classified as a 4ply weight or fingering yarn). Made from 100% Real Shetland Wool, this yarn offers unparalleled warmth and softness, with each 25g ball containing 115 meters of yarn. For this project, gather the following shades:
- Yarn A: Shade FC11 - 2 x 25g balls
- Yarn B: Shade 1A - 1 x 25g ball
- Yarn C: Shade 125 - 1 x 25g ball
- Yarn D: Shade FC7 - 1 x 25g ball
You will also need specific knitting tools to complete your fingerless gloves. Gather one set of 2.5mm double-pointed needles (DPNs) or needles suitable for your preferred method of knitting small circumferences. Additionally, have one set of 3.00mm double-pointed needles (DPNs) ready, along with two lengths of smooth waste yarn for the afterthought thumb placement. Don’t forget to have two stitch holders or longer lengths of smooth waste yarn on hand to assist with your project.
This pattern is designed in one size, making it a perfect fit for small to medium adult hands with a circumference of 7 to 7.5 inches. Ensure your tension is accurate by achieving 32 stitches and 36 rounds to a 4-inch measurement over the chart patterns, using the 3.00mm needles, after washing and blocking your finished product.
