Gia fingerless gloves

Yarn:

Any fingering weight yarn.

Needles:

3 mm – US 2.

Gauge:

12 stitches and 18 rows = 5x5 cm / 2x2 inches in stockinette stitch. In case the yarn overs are not visible enough, consider using yotwice (wrap the yarn twice around the needle) to have a larger hole.

Size:

Wrist is 10/12 cm (4-5 inches) which fits a small female hand. As gauge can vary greatly on an item this size, check the fit in advance.

Right hand:

Cast on 36 stitches. Join to work in the round. Work 10 rows in *k2, p2* rib. Start pattern, which is worked in multiples of 8 rows: Row 1: Purl 7, knit 3, k2tog, k4, yo, purl to the end of the row. Row 2, 4, 6 and 8: Purl 7, knit 9, purl to the end of the row. Row 3: Purl 7, knit 2, k2tog, k4, yo, k1, purl to the end of the row. Row 5: Purl 7, knit 1, k2tog, k4, yo, k3, purl to the end of the row. Row 7: Purl 7, k2tog, k4, yo, k3, purl to the end of the row. Repeat pattern 5 times (for the length you see in the pictures, or enough repeats to reach desired length). On row 1 of the 6th repeat start thumb gusset: After motif, purl 7, pm, purl front and back, purl 2, purl front and back, pm. The standard thumb increase row will therefore be: work to marker, purl front and back, purl to last stitch before marker, purl front and back, finish row. Work this increase row 1 in 2 rows (when you work the lace motif) until you have 16 stitches between markers (2 rd hole of the 2nd motif repeat – that is to say 3rd row of the 2nd motif repeat), then go on without increasing and simply purling between markers until you finish the motif, plus 2 lace holes of the next motif
