I got some pretty bad yarn burn while working with some rough yarn today. So, I plopped down and made myself a finger sweater!

It covers just the area that comes in contact with the yarn, so it doesn’t limit mobility. It also doesn’t make your finger sweaty like finger cots (like a rubber glove for your finger). And, most of all, they’re cute and fun!

I like mine so much, I’ll wear it around the house for a little while after I’m done knitting or crocheting. It’s like a tiny wristband for my finger! Punk rock! =P

The pattern is for the finger sweater I made for my own finger, adjustments are really quite simple and don’t take long to figure out since it’s so small. I finished mine in probably 15-20 minutes (and I’m a beginning knitter). You can easily adjust this pattern to work with a different yarn weight, needle size and your finger size.
