This was designed specifically for Red Riding Hood Yarns’ Ladies of Luxe Yarn Club 2015. The pattern remains exclusive for club members until the end of September 2015, when it will be made available for purchase here.

“Grace” was designed to honor the late Grace Kelly, Her Royal Highness, Princess of Monaco.

The fingerless gloves begin with an open wrist, knit flat, and is joined at the base of the hand to be knit in-the-round to the top hem.
The thumb stitches are set aside and picked up at the end.
The gloves begin and end with picot hems, and along with your choice of buttons express an air of elegance.

The faux collar is provisionally cast on, knit flat, then grafted, ready to adorn your neck with a tasteful statement piece of jewellry.

Grace Kelly’s jewellry never drew attention away from her, but instead, enhanced her exquisite beauty and strength. The silky sheen of Red Riding Hood Yarn’s “Jolie Sock” pairs perfectly with the subtle texture of the gloves and collar to reflect this.
