Level
Intermediate
Gauge
3″/7.75cm x 3″/7.75cm = 10 sts x rnds 1-7 of the wrist ribbing (FPdc + dc)
Finished Dimensions
Width = 3.5”/9cm (4.25”/11cm)
Finished length is 8”/20cm for both sizes so it will fit longer on smaller hands.
Fit
Pattern has negative ease of .5”/1.5cm-1.5”/4cm where finished glove is smaller than hand measurement and stretches to fit.
To fit hand circumferences (measure around the knuckles) of:
- (S/M) 8”/20.5cm – 8.5”/21.5cm
- (L/XL) 9”/23.5cm – 9.5”/24cm
Adjustments
Going up or down a size in the pattern is easiest.
To further adjust the width use a stitch multiple of 6. You can do this by adding or subtracting 6 to my starting chain. As this is a large number of stitches to change, you may consider going up or down a hook size instead.
To change the length, adjust the number of rnds you repeat. I recommend adding or subtracting rounds in pairs.
