Crocodile is the next installment for my upcoming book Through the Knitting Glass! These fingerless gloves feature a strangely unusual cable stitch across the top and a sea of purls along the bottom, reminiscent of a sinister tail gliding through murky water. Invisible thumb gussets and a bit of ribbing add a finish as sleek as scales. They are available in three different sizes to provide the best possible fit.
