Adult gloves in a gradient yarn with an entrelac band around the knuckles.

Woven Knuckles

$10 CAD

These colourful gloves feature a network of stitches around the knuckles while the wide side gusset offers a roomy fit for lots of mobility. The colour flows unbroken from the gusset to the tip of the thumb, which you complete before the entrelac panel starts. For an even sharper contrast, work the entrelac panel from the other end of the ball.

Construction

Gloves are worked from cuff to finger tips. The thumb is worked after the thumb gusset is completed, and before the rest of the hand. Then the band of entrelac diamonds is worked around the hand, followed by the individual fingers.

Substitution Notes

The original yarn is a light sport weight sock yarn. It has a long and slow colour gradient. Ombré and gradient yarns would be a perfect substitute for a similar look. Solid coloured yarns may also be used and you could have some fun stash diving for the entrelac section.

Knit Picks Chroma Fingering would be a great substitution.
