Meet my new favorite pair of crocheted fingerless gloves.

What makes them my favorite, you might ask?

The prominent design elements include delightful lace ruffles at the wrists; a playful, speckled yarn that's surprisingly affordable for a handpaint; an ultra-simple crochet mesh stitch that makes up most of the gloves; and pretty ribbons tied in bows at the wrists. If a lacy doily and a pair of wrist warmers got married and had twins, this is what they might look like.

This is an easy crochet pattern. It’s also a one-skein project.

The name of the suggested yarn for this pattern is Hawthorne Speckle. It’s a fingering weight wool / polyamide blend manufactured by Knitpicks
