I love fingerless gloves. They are my favorite accessory – and also my favorite piece to knit because they offer so many varieties of constructing them. Plus they are a relatively small project so it is usually a quick knit and therefore great to try out new techniques.
The ones here are knitted flat and in garter stitch. They start with a provisional CO, are knitted flat and end with grafting. Finally the side seams have to be sewn together.
Since this is a project with very short short rows and in two colours, it can be quite fiddly. It is NOT a beginner pattern.

The pattern PDF is 13 pages long and contains:

• written row-by-row instructions for knitting a mitt in one size only – including eight in-process photos
• a full chart
• short photo tutorials for the following techniques: provisional CO with a crochet hook and how to undo it, grafting in garter stitch, short rows with wrap and turn and picking up the wraps and an explanation on doubly wrapped stitches, weaving in yarn while carrying it (backwards and forwards), crochet CO

To get a certain variation of sizes I knitted the piece with different needle sizes and the last photo shows a comparision - the top one knitted with 3mm needles and the bottom one knitted with 2.5 mm needles.

• With 2.5 mm needles 28 ridges (56 garter stitch rows) gave me 10 cm in height and 26 sts gave 10 cm in width (unblocked, since I didn’t block the mitts). The finished piece is about 17 cm high (at it’s highest point) and about 16 cm in diameter (without just below the thumb).
• With 3 mm needles 25 ridges (50 garter stitch rows) gave me 10 cm in height and 24 sts gave 10 cm in width (also unblocked). The finished piece measures about 19 cm in height and about 18 cm in diameter (just below the thumb). However, the pieces are all in garter stitch, so they are quite stretchy.
