Product Details
These gloves are worked cuff-up in the round, and feature a band of stranded colourwork that glows against the darker background. The thumb is set aside using a technique often referred to as a 'peasant' or 'afterthought' thumb, where the stitches for the thumb are worked in waste yarn, then worked again in pattern. The waste yarn is picked out leaving live stitches above and below the gap with which to work the thumb.
Originally published in Issue 67 of Knit Now. The original yarn has been discontinued; Plymouth Yarn Alpaca Prima is recommended as a close substitute.
