Contempo is a textured lace glove pattern, adorned with decorative buttons, and exudes a sophisticated air of urbane
elegance. Both delicate-looking and super swanky, these gloves have the functionality of biking mitts with an uptown, stylish outlook. Shield your hands from the elements with these delectable gloves… The versatile rib and lace combination in the gloves means that they can go effortlessly from casual, to business, to evening! Experiment with different colours to suit your mood and wardrobe; the gloves are a relatively fast knit which means you can have a pair of these ‘classy cool’ pieces in no time!

Each glove is knitted in 2 pieces. The cuff is knitted on
straight needles, and then the edges are picked up to attach the hand portion of the glove in the round using double pointed needles. Pattern includes step by step instructions and full colour photographs.
