Bruges lace strips are so much fun to join as you go. These bright and cheerful gauntlets can be whipped up in no time, and the instant gratification of watching the strips come to life with each additional join is terrific. The shaping is accomplished with corset tied (or shoelace tied) chains that are simply adjusted for width as you tie them. Easy, quick, and supercute, these would make wonderful gifts! Also, if you want longer gauntlets, simply crochet the strips longer.
