Small Shell Fingerless Glove Pattern

My sister asked for some fingerless gloves while we were taking a ferry from Hong Kong to Macau.  She wanted short on the wrist and long over the knuckles, so I came up with this pattern while we had time on the ferry.  Any resemblance to other patterns is accidental.  However, writing it was very very simple - you just need to know how to single and double crochet (american).

It isn't a perfect pattern, and but you can fudge with it since it is so simple.


I used a 4.5mm hook, and Lion Brand Amazing Yarn - but you can use any yarn or hook that work well together. Also just make sure you have a multiple of 3 and you are set.


Pattern:

Ch 27 - slip stitch (sl st)
Row 1 - chain 1, single crochet in all chains, sl st - 27 st
Row 2 - chain 3 (counts as one DC throughout), 1 dc in same st as chain, *skip 2 st, 3dc in one st* repeat until there are 2 st left, 1dc in last st. sl st
Row 3 - chain 3, 1 dc in same st *3 dc in center st of previous row's 3dc* around until last two st, 1 dc in last st. sl st.
Row 4-7 repeat row 3
Row 8 - thumb hole row - ch 3, 1 dc in same st, 3 dc in center st of previous row's 3dc, chain 3 and skip over 3dc from previous row, then *3 dc in center st of previous row's 3dc* around until last two st. 1 dc in last st. sl st.  (for a short pair of gloves, otherwise continue with row 2 until desired length then use this)
Row 9 - chain 3, 1 dc in same st, 3 dc in center st of previous 3dc, 3dc in center st of chain 3, * 3 dc in center st of previous row's 3dc* until last two st, 1dc in last st. sl st
Row 10-13 - chain 3, 1 dc in same st *3 dc in center st of previous row's 3dc* around until last two st, 1 dc in last st. sl st.
Row 14 - chain 1, single crochet around - 27 st, fasten off.

Enjoy!
