my fingerless gloves

[Momcrochets]

I discovered this month, that my oversized winter coat, does NOT have oversized sleeves when it comes to length. Everytime I was outside shovelling snow, my wrists would be exposed (between my puffy-fat shovelling gloves and my coat). Brrr. So I went looking through my patterns for some fingerless gloves, and didn't like what I saw, couldn't find what I thought should be there.

So I came up with these, using Sport weight yarn. Thin enough to go under gloves and coat. But I found out I like them in the house too I'm wearing them while I'm at the computer...and I've worn them crocheting in the evening too.

Very pretty pattern and useful too! I wear mine when I'm at the computer too - my hands always get so cold without them!

Very pretty but didn't your fingers get cold shoveling that snow?

[LondonLaura]

Very pretty. I love making things like this, they make great gifts!

[Momcrochets]

Denise...I actually put them on Under my regular puffy gloves and my winter jacket. But no matter what I put on them, my fingers always get cold outside in the winter...as do my poor toes!

Great job designing them! And gotta love the uses for them!

Great gloves. I wear mine all the time, especially at the computer or while crocheting.

I love those, I was just telling my daughter about those and asked her if I ever learned to make them would she wear them and she said yes she would love some of those, but I have looked at patterns and just not sure if I can do it, I can do the basics but would love to make something like that because they would make good gifts and wearing them at the computer sounds great also because my hands get cold too what a wonderful idea.

Great idea ... the computer gloves! I need some of those. TFS, you did a wonderful job. Do they keep you warm when you're shoveling?

[Momcrochets]

You know, Deborah, since I made them we've had very cold weather, but not enough snow to shovel! :yaya So I have no idea how well they really work for that! But they do work nicely in the house!

 

Loves2stitch, they really are quite simple...think of a tube with a thumbhole. There are several patterns out there. (I haven't written this one up, but I know there's one, I believe it's here in the 'Ville for a shell-stitch set. Not by me ) I'm sure you can make a set.

I'm sorry Momcrochets, you did have in your original post that they fit under your gloves. That is what I get for staying up to late at night.

Ah, sooo cute! I'm actually thinking about crocheting something like that soon. I'm just doing what's (almost) the most fun; browsing for patterns.

[Momcrochets]

no worries, denise...I do stuff like that all the time...during the day, even

Very nice. Love fingerless gloves for wearing in my house. Pretty stitch you used.
