These extremely basic gloves are perfect for knitters who’ve never tried gloves before. The simple styling is equally well appreciated by men who don’t want anything fancy on their hands.

Construction Notes
The slipped stitch ribbing in the cuffs provides for a snug cuff that keeps the chill out and has just a little extra warmth to it. It will also break up a more playful colorway mixing the colors together.

Notions
2 markers
scrap yarn for holding thumb
stitch holders for working fingers
tapestry needle for weaving in ends

Skills
