Vicki Fingerless Gloves



I recently rediscovered this pattern I came up with a couple of years ago for fingler-less gloves. It looks like I got 90% complete but forgot to write up knitting off the three fingers and the knitting of the thumb. I hate to post an incomplete pattern but I also hate to see this lovely option go to waste. If anyone is daring enough to give this pattern a shot and complete the missing parts, I would love to see it!

Cast on 54 stitches, divided between 3 needles
*KTB1, P1, repeat from * around.

Add one stitch and and begin the lase panel as follows:

Round 8: as rnd 2

Repeat Rounds 1-8 and begin thumb gusset adding 1 stitch on each side of the thumb gusset (starting at the first stitch and 3rd from the end leaving two stitches in the middle of the gasset). Continue to add stitches on the 1st and 4th row of pattern util gusset consists of 14 stitches. Knit through to round 8 stopping at the thumb gusset marker. Slip 14 gusset sts to stich holder or length of waste yarn. Cast on 2 stitches, work to end of rnd (55 sts)

Without individual fingers: Repeat Rounds 1-8 twice more and work 6 rounds of KBT1, P1 ribbing. Bind off loosely. 


With individual fingers: Repeat rounds 1-8  1-1/2 more times stopping on round 4: 8 stitches after the Pattern (K6, P2, K4, P2, K2, P2, K7, P2, K2, P2, K4, P2, K8). 

Pinky: Slip all stitches except the last 14 stitches you just knitted onto a stitch holder or length of waste yarn.
Add two stitches, K three rounds and then work 3 rounds of KBT1, P1 ribbing. Bind of Loosely

Remaining fingers: Transfer remaining stitches back onto three needles. Pick up and knit 3 stitches between pinky and ring finger. knit to end of round. Work modified rows 5-8 as shown below (basically you don't have the final cable or pearls because they are on the pinky)
