Notes

Trying my “Shaka” recipe on twisted rib. It works, but ultimately, you can’t beat His & Hers Gloves for working a glove with all-over rib.

First glove notes

“Alternate cable cast-on 72” wasn’t good. Ripped and restarted with long-tail cast-on 68. Twisted rib.

Cuff: 30 rnds

Thumb waste yarn to pinky base: 15 rnds

Fingers (waste yarn to tip decreases):

  • Pinky: 27 rnds
  • Thumb (26 sts): 24 rnds

Mike’s hand is 1/2-in (6 rnds) pinky notch to middle-finger base. Set-up for upper hand involves a m1p at end of round, and a cdd at base before working finger.

  • Ring (24 sts): 31 rnds
  • Middle (24 sts): 34 rnds
  • Index: (26 sts): 29 rnds

Future Notes

I had a knit stitch at the center of the thumb increases. I think it looks better if there’s a purl stitch there, so lines of knit stitches frame the increases rather than the increases appearing unmoored in a background of purl.
