A free crochet pattern
I have another Christmas present to share with you. My SIL asked me to make her some fingerless gloves. She sent me some pictures of different ones she liked on Pinterest. From those pictures I gathered that she wanted some that had a cuff and had an interesting element to them. With that in mind I made some fingerless gloves with my own flare.
As you know lace is my favorite. But it is not really practical in the winter when you want to stay warm. I thought why not add layers. I picked bold colors to really show off the lace.
*Update* Now that it has been a few years. I can say that I have made this pattern more than any of my other patterns. I have made these gloves for teacher gifts, Christmas presents, craft fairs and everything in-between. People always comment on how warm they are because of the double layers. This isn't the most popular pattern on the blog in downloads but it is the pattern that I get commissions for the most.
