She wanted something not too lacy, not too plain, without too many or big holes but still with an interesting design. (Like I said, picky).
There is a handy PDF version of the pattern, if you prefer.

Tips for increasing/decreasing the pattern:
-You need a multiple of three plus one for the starting chain.
-For a larger hand, in Round 10 of pattern you may need to skip the last two dc clusters instead of just the last one.
I love so much fingerless gloves, especially this... ^^
ReplyDeleteI'm glad your sister is picky - these were exactly the requirements I was looking for too. Making myself a pair and a pair for the future sister-in-law as well.
ReplyDeleteI like very much your fingerless that I found on Ravelry.
ReplyDeleteI'll try to crochet them ;)
Bye bye
Mopo
I loved these gloves! I made mine and you can see them at my blog under the post titled 'An Accessory'.
ReplyDelete-www.annalowery.blogspot.com.
Thank you! Your blog doesn't seem to be up anymore, but I saw your gloves on Ravelry and they are gorgeous. Glad you liked the pattern!
DeleteGreat pattern! Love it!
ReplyDeleteThank you! :)
Deletei like it but i am so confused! about several things.
ReplyDelete1. when i join the chain with sl st do i join in back loop or both loops?
2. when i sc around the chain do i do front or back loops?
3. how many stitches should i have when i return to me stitch marker?
4. do i skip any stitches for hdc's in a round?
Hello!
Delete1. Both loops.
2. That is usually a personal preference thing. I usually do it in the back loop of the chain - not the two loops that form the little 'v' in the front. I hope that makes sense, if not, let me know so I can see about taking a picture for you.
3. I'm not sure I understand what you're asking. You should always have 27 stitches at the end of each round, and 24 after doing the thumb hole.
4. Again, I'm not sure I understand what you're asking. Could you explain this one again?
Hope this was somewhat helpful!
thank you!! and thank you for being so fast <3
Deleteyeah, i know what a stitch is, its just i do amigurumi which doesn't ever use chains. actually a picture would be very helpful. do you do it on all your sc's?
for 3: that is exactly what i needed to know. do you have a video example though, of you doing just one row? because thats something that confuses me a lot. which stitch i end up on. i asked that just to make sure that the sl st join would get rid of one stitch of your original chain.
for 4: some people say when you do hdc's, to skip 2 stitches the first one you make. something that made this even worse is that someone else said to skip 3 stitches. and yet another said nothing of the sort.
so basically, i just perform the HDC? no chains, no skipping, just do it when i start the row?
yes, it was actually :3
No problem :)
DeleteHere is what it looks like. And yep, I always insert the hook in that part of a chain stitch.
There is actually an extra chain stitch at the beginning of each round of the cuff.
Oh, no, you don't need to skip any stitches in this case. You only need to do that if you're doing hdc on a starting chain, but in this case, there is already a sc round, so it's fine.
You chain one at the beginning of each round, and then yes, just go ahead with the hdc.
Hope you got my email concerning this, I've recently been told by several people that they haven't received emails I've been sending, so I just thought I'd make sure :)
ReplyDeleteGreat pattern, and I love that it uses so little yarn. I linked to it on my blog this morning if you want to check it out: http://www.mooglyblog.com/10-crochet-fingerless-mitts-patterns/
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for sharing your pattern!
Thanks! I'm glad you like the pattern :D
DeleteThanks for the pattern. I like the combination of clusters and V-stitches.
ReplyDeleteThank you, glad you enjoyed the pattern :D
DeleteI love these gloves! So cute and comfortable.
ReplyDeleteGlad you like them!
DeleteI've just completed my first pair with your pattern to give as a Christmas gift - thank you so much for sharing your talent! They go very nicely with the infinity scarf I made for her as well - Bonus :)
ReplyDeleteThank you, I'm glad you like the pattern! Hope she likes them as well :D
DeleteJust made a pair of these for my mom this afternoon. They go perfectly with the shawl I finished for her last weekend. :) Thanks so much for sharing the pattern.
ReplyDeleteSoooooooo making these today. Thanks so much :) I did have one question though, if I wanted to make them a bit longer, would I just keep repeating rnds 6 and 7 for a bit until I moved on to rnd 10?
ReplyDeleteYep, that would work :) That would make them extend more towards your arm. Or you could work more rounds in the cuff (or do both). If you want them to cover your fingers more, just add a couple more rounds after round 10.
DeleteTrying to figure out front post vs back post...is it the same stitch?
ReplyDeleteErzabetwrites@gmail.com
Hello there! Nope, front post and back post stitches are not the same. Here is a video tutorial for both, hope that helps clear it up:

ReplyDeleteThank you so much for sharing, I was trying to find the stitch to go with a scarf I found, seems like this will work or maybe I’ll just try your infinity scarf.
