This Pastel Fuchsia Gloves is crocheted with a very soft yarn. Funky fuchsia beads are also incorporated into the work. A little more details on how to incorporate the beads can be found further down.
Some notes on making Pastel Fuchsia Gloves
I seldom go into details about the specific crochet stitches. There is no hard and fast rule. I pretty much decide on what stitch I will be using at the time of creation. Though I often adapt the stitches or combination of stitch patterns, based on my mood, the yarn, and the materials I have at hand, I find that a book of crochet stitches is an invaluable asset. So I would recommend those kinds of crochet books. They are a perfect resource to give your work diversity and endless interest.
For example, this is one of the books I use:
I modified the following crochet stitch to incorporate the beads into the work.
The graph for this crochet stitch is from a very old Japanese crochet book I have. On examining this stitch, I realized that I could use the second (pick-up) stitch not just in a different colored yarn but in a yarn that is suitable for threading beads.
Fingerless gloves are the gloves that will free your fingers free while keeping your hands, wrists, and fingers toasty warm and mobile! Ideal for jewerly artists, pianists, pianists, anyone who needs to keep their fingers warm and flexible.
When winter comes and chill descends, and your fingers need to continue at peak performance, then these fingerless gloves and hand warmers are the perfect answer.
Very easy to wear. Just pull on and be Warm! Left/Right sides are identical – can be worn on either hand.
Tip: on this pair of pastel fuchsia gloves, I have made the end towards the fingers a bit smaller. This produces a snugger (more snug) fit at that end.
IMPORTANT:
Size: Small – Medium
Though gloves will yield and stretch over time, this is made snug for a smaller hand/wrist size.
Materials
- soft wool – in variegated pastel tones
- crystal beads
