Embroidered Knuckle Gloves

[firstfrost]

Cause and Effect gloves, so rifmeister can be a two-fisted whirlwind of punchy logic! These gloves knit up really really fast. I always think of gloves as about the same size as socks, but I think that's stick figure biology talking. (Also, the gloves are on size 4 needles and socks are usually on something more like size 1, so that helps things go faster).

Those are nice! What's your pattern? Fingerless gloves/armwarmers are next on the pile of things-I-knit-for-me, but I haven't researched patterns yet.

Huh. That crab stitch thing is kind of neat. My new favorite bindoff is doing a kitchener graft on 1,1 ribbing.

I made the pair (http://web.mit.edu/boojum/Pix/Knit/Sweaters/tn/gloves.JPG.html) for desireearmfeldt with the texture cuff and crab stitch bindoff, and I had the hardest time wrapping my head around the crab stitch. Possibly because I don't have much crochet experience.

Well socks generally don't just cover the foot, and s are longer. And with fingerless gloves that is a lot less surface area.

Neato! Have you got the gloves thing down now? Or fingerless gloves anyway?

Yup, I think I get the hang of thumb gussets now. :) (I will probably start the mermaid gloves after Christmas or so.)
