| Three sorts of gloves I made. |
I made a pair of fingerless gloves, using the tutorial Melli's Mish Mash:
Because these gloves were
a bit too long for my taste, I made some changes to the pattern.
I also made a pair for
my little daughter (5 years).
Please use Melli's tutorial, the only changes I made were the number of
rows.
If you are new to the
loom, Melli also has some very nice links for the basics you will
need:

| Left the adult size short glove and on the right the kids size |
For
the size 7,5 adult wrist length gloves:
I used my 24 peg loom (smallest
I got) and a double yarn US size 3/needles 3,5-4)
1. Knit
2 pegs, then purl 2 pegs for 10 rows.
This should create a ribbing effect.
2. Knit
stitch 5 rows.
3. After
the 5 rows knit back and forth 6 times
to create thumb hole (back and forth counts as 1). Look at Melli's tutorial for some pictures!
4. Knit
stitch 15 rows.
5. Then,
knit 2, purl 2 for 6 more rows.
6. Then
bind off/single crochet your project. Make sure you tie off the ends well.
7. Do
it again and you'll have your pair!
For
the small size kids wrist length gloves:
