Joy gloves
Can you see a lot of people gathering with joy, holding their joined hands up?
First, I designed the cuffs in colorwork to resemble fruits-bearing trees. Next, I filled the back of the hand with lots of fruits using little knot stitches. In the end, I incorporated stranded stitch patterns to connect the cuffs to the body and to my surprise, joyful people appeared on the top of the cuffs!
Hope you enjoy knitting these gloves with them.
This gloves pattern contains charts and written instructions.
It features a picot hem, a stranded colorwork on the cuffs, twisted traveling stitches on thumb, and Little knot stitch pattern on the back of hand. The gloves features the thumb gussets and the little finger starting lower.
