Notes

MODS:

  • 5 rows seed stitch after initial cast on
  • remove second yo/p2tog in first row of first repeat
  • seed beads on either side of first yo and on right of second yo for row 1
  • seed beads on either side of yo for rows 5 and 9
  • 3 rows seed stitch before bind off
  • only one row ss after thumb decreases
  • 3 rows seed stitch before thumb bind off
  • reverse direction of chart for left hand (so that gloves mirror one another); remember to recalculate required knit stitches at the end of pattern rows when increasing for thumb gusset
  • left hand, row 16: k33, make 5, place 15 on holder, k2 (this appears to be a pattern mistake)

Compared to the Mission Falls yarn recommended for this, Amuri runs to an extra 20m and definitely does not require the second hank. I will probably use my spare one to make a second set of these for a friend - with the beads but probably with one less pattern repeat before the thumb gusset.
