This is a pretty simple pattern for working cuff-to-finger. All I really worked out are the proportions and the number of stitches/rows necessary to make nicely fitted fingerless gloves. You can try them on as you go too. With sock yarn! Self striping gives a little extra bang for your effort.

I do not give row-by-row instructions here. Just basic guidelines that I hope is enough information for most knitters. I do however include stitch and row counts.

You need to know how to knit and purl, cast on and bind off, how to do a Make One leaning left, a Make One leaning right, and also twisted loop cast on. And you will have to work in the round for the hand as well as the fingers.

Who among us doesn’t have 200 yards of sock yarn just waiting in our stash?
