Fingerless Gloves

Collection of Fingerless Gloves, Hand Warmers, Wrist Warmers

Lately I have plunged back into handmade crafts. I seem to be on an unexpected production roll in making fingerless gloves. Previously I was writing up on each but as the production seems to be continuing, I have decided to put all of these on one page, for the convenience of you and me. Most of the yarn I have used here are hand wound and spun - from a community of women working for their livelihood in Nepal.

I have used a variety of stitches to make the gloves - otherwise I find it so boring to keep reproducing the same thing. You will be able to pretty much decipher the different stitches or better yet, just use whatever crochet stitches you would like to play or experiment with.

Fingerless gloves or hand warmers (sometimes also called "gauntlets") are extremely useful for just about anyone on a chilly wintry day. They are super easy to wear and they keep your hands AND fingers remarkably warm and flexible. Whether you are an artist, pianist, jewelry maker, or just out for a walk with the dog - hand warmers allow you to keep on going with unfrozen fingers.

The 100% silk, 100% wool yarn, pure viscose have been wound by native women in Nepal. They are from a community co-op that helps to provide work and independence to these women.

Maintenance/Care

As with most handmade items, a bit of loving care will ensure the longevity and optimal upkeep of the piece.

Orange Teal in amazing Viscose, Fingerless Gloves Handwarmers (Sm)

I really have to add a special note to these Orange Teal handmade crafted crocheted gloves. I used Viscose yarn for these gloves but was not sure how it would turn out as the yarn does not have the stretch of woolen yarn. However this yarn took me by surprise - and very pleasantly so.

This yarn is more expensive and is one of my Favourite-est yarn; I just love viscose. Viscose is a man-made yet natural yarn (made from pulp and cellulose). It has the drape and silkiness of silk and can breathe, just like natural cotton. It is a perfect combination of the best of both worlds - and I love working with it.

And in the use of this viscose yarn for these fingerless gloves, it has proven that it is almost more perfect than wool. Despite the yarn being less stretchy than wool, yet when it is made up, the gloves seem to hug the hands themselves. Perfect! So in effect, the whole material stretches while being put on and then it reforms to hug the hands, increasing the level of delicious comfort and fit. Still my very favourite yarn!

Handmade Crafts: Velvet Lilac - Fingerless Gloves (Sm)

I was asked a little while ago to make a small pair of longish gloves, something in the purple-range. She was originally looking for something like the Long Romance (sold, with no replacement yarn). Since then, I have been buying bag after bag of yarn in what I thought was in the purple range. I am a 99% internet shopper and one of the downfalls of that is that what one sees on the monitor screen is not necessarily what it is in real life - especially when it comes to colors.

I got this Cleckheaton Velvet Ribbon - in pale lilac but it is a tat too pale. So to bring out the color, I added some (100% wool) medium lilac and I think that it does look much better.
