Skeeter Writing Gloves
These writing gloves were inspired by the decorative ladder stitch that, to me, resembles dragonflies or skeeter eaters. It’s a basic and simple pattern, completely symmetrical, that is easy to adjust for both circumference and length. If you’re familiar with making mitts, it can also be adapted for different yarn weights. The fancy bit of stitching is completed at the end!
