I have removed all of my patterns from Ravelry as of March 2021 due to the unresolved accessibility issues.

My patterns are available at LoveCrafts here:

Just the thing for using up scrap yarn! These thrifty little gloves have an original stranded pattern over the main body of the hand to pretty them up. There is also an afterthought thumb for simplicity.

Detailed yarn requirements are:

150 yds in Natural
30 yds in Dark Blue
20 yds in Yellow
20 yds in Deep Red
17 yds in Burnt Orange

Here are some useful tutorials that may help you with this pattern:
