The Tunisian Cable Fingerless Gloves are part of a 4 piece Tunisian Cable collection, which also includes a headband, hat and scarf.

Although the pattern is written for one size, 22cm tall and 25cm around, they have plenty of stretch in them. Additionally there are notes for adjusting the size of the gloves too, to make them longer or shorter and adjusting the fit around your wrist.

The pattern contains a photo tutorial for working Tunisian cables so if this is something you have never tried before, don’t let that put you off, you will be able to work it with the tutorial. As long as you know the Knit and Purl stitches you will be able to work this pattern.

I made mine using 2 strands of Aran/worsted cakes to give a chunky feel. Mine are 20% wool which gives a little more stretch than 100% acrylic, but either should work well. You can either use a chunky yarn or 2 strands of aran like I did. The pattern uses an 8mm Tunisian crochet hook.
