NATIVE AMERICAN FOOTBALL TEAM FINGERLESS MITTS
I bought 2 skeins of the red yarn, but really only needed 1. For
the orange, I don’t even think I got through 1/2 of the skein I bought, so if
you have some yellow or orange in your stash, you probably won’t need to get
another skein.
It’s knit in the round - I use Magic Loop method, but you can use
double pointed needles.
Cast on 48 stitches. Knit K1 P1 for however long you want the cuff to be, then
switch to just knitting every round. When you get to where you want to make the
thumb gusset (in my case it was 28 rows), at the beginning of the round, P1, k
in front and back of the next stitch (an increase), k1, k in front and back of
the next stitch (another increase), P1.
Knit the next round, except for those two purl stitches.
Repeat those two rounds until you have 13 stitches between the two purl
stitches.
Knit the next round (2nd round in the pattern).
Place the 15 thumb stitches on a stitch holder.
cast on three sts (I usually turn the work, purl on three stitches, then turn
the work again and continue the round.
Go back to the 15 thumb stitches. Put them on the needle. Pick up
five stitches. Knit in the round for about three rounds. Bind off.
weave in ends.
Use the first glove as a template for the second one.
Knit about 10 rounds. Bind off.
