This pair of fingerless gloves has separated finger openings which keeps the palm section from riding up your hand. Perfect to use when driving since your hands are on the steering wheel all the time.

The cuff is worked with front & back-post double crochet; and the body of the glove uses a variation of the linked double crochet. (Instructions and link to pictures in the pattern).

This stitch is slightly stretchy and give the gloves a unique, textured look. If you’re like me at all, you get tired of the seeing the same stitches all the time. This “loopy” linked double crochet is fun & easy to do - and different!

Additional gauge info - (17 Ldc & 12 rows = 3 inches in the round when working the gloves)
