Gladys Gloves




A Free Crochet Pattern


 Today has been a day. We woke up to no water in the house. Our pipes froze. More specifically the pipes connected to our water meter froze. There are tons of others going through the same problem with these frigid temperatures, and I am thankful it was our water not working instead of our heat. Hopefully we will get things thawed out soon (with nothing broken) and be back to normal. Even with all the chaos I really wanted to get this new pattern out for everyone. 

I wanted to make a fitted glove (ie a glove with a thumb gusset), that had a comfortable fit, and also had a classic cable design that will never go out of style. This is a large pattern, mainly because of the thumb gusset, but don't let that scare you. Most of the rows only change by two stitches. 

Where to get This Pattern

This pattern is a free pattern on the blog in size small. Just keep scrolling down to find the pattern. If you would like an ads free, printer friendly version you can purchase from my various pattern shops listed below.

Crags and Cusps Hat

A Free Knit Pattern




I have a brand new Knit hat pattern. I was looking for a hat that could be really versatile. I wanted one that could work for male or female and one that would have a lot of stretch and growth with it. The crags and Cusps Hat was my solution. It is a ribbed hat that has tons of stretch and comfort. One of the hats that I made fits both my girls and myself, comfortably.  My youngest is almost six and well my age isn't important other than I'm an adult. Cough cough.  Kids grow so quickly, I really wanted a hat that was going to last through a few growth spurts. 

Could it be one of my patterns without some easy cabling? The cabling is made with Right and Left twist stitches. If you have never worked with those stitches don't worry they are easier than you think, and I think this is a great pattern to practice with. 

Below I have the adult size available for free. If you purchase the PDF version of this pattern I also have a baby size and child size. I have also included a chart to help you out. You Can purchase the PDF from my usual locations.
