“Are you content now?” said the Caterpillar.
“Well, I should like to be a LITTLE larger, sir, if you wouldn’t mind,” said Alice: “three inches is such a wretched height to be.”
“It is a very good height indeed!” said the Caterpillar angrily, rearing itself upright as it spoke (it was exactly three inches high).

Alice in Wonderland

Whether your hands are XS, XL or anywhere in between, you’ll find your perfect size here!

The sizes Women’s XS/S[M, L, XL] will fit hands with a circumference above thumb of 17.5[19, 20, 21.5]cm / 6[7½, 7⅞, 8½]”, with about 1.5-2cm / ½-¾” negative ease. Shown in main picture in size Women’s XS/S.

You will need 90[100, 105, 110]m / 98[109, 115, 120] yards in your main colour and 65[70, 70, 75]m / 71[77, 77, 82] yards in the contrast shades.

This is a good pattern to make use of your spotty yarns, although it will work equally well with solid shades!

With lots of thanks to my wonderful test knitters!
