Sublime fingerless gloves knitting pattern

I thought I would show something that one of my customers in Chicago has recently knitted for her granddaughter.

These fingerless gloves (or mitts as the pattern book refers to them) are from Sublime’s new Accessories book.  Made with Sublime Extra Fine Merino DK means that they are soft and warm and ideal as Winter approaches.

Fingerless gloves aren’t to everyone’s taste though, so the same book features a normal pair of mittens too.

Of if you’d prefer to knit a normal pair of gloves, then there is a pattern in Sublime’s new Extra Fine Merino 4 Ply book.  These gloves only take 1 ball of Sublime’s Extra Fine Merino 4 Ply and are knitted on 2 needles, rather than the usual way which is on a set of 4 double pointed needles.  Handy for those knitters who are a bit scared to try knitting with DPNs or who find it a bit tricky handling 4 or 5 needles at once!
