GAUGE:

32 1/2 sts = about 4 in. (10 cm) with smaller needles over K2, p2 Rib, stretched.

When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern
and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. The needle or hook size called for
in the pattern is based on what the designer used, but it is not unusual for gauge to vary from
person to person. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make your swatch, try using a
smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.

Making a Gauge Swatch

STITCH EXPLANATION:

sk2p Slip 1 as if to knit, knit 2 together, pass slipped stitch over – 2 sts decreased.
yo (yarn over)
An increase that also creates a small decorative hole (eyelet) in the fabric, worked as follows:
1. Bring yarn to front, between the needles.
2. Take yarn to back, over the right needle. This creates the new st. You are now ready to
proceed with the next st as instructed.

PATTERN STITCH
K2, p2 Rib (worked over a multiple of 4 sts)
Row 1: *K2, p2; rep from * to end of row.
Row 2: K the knit sts and p the purl sts.
Rep Row 2 for K2, p2 Rib.
NOTES:

1. Gloves are worked flat in ribbing and an easy lace pattern.

2. Ribbing on Gloves allows them to easily stretch to fit a range of sizes.
3. The first and last st of each row is worked in Garter st (k every row) as selvedge sts. These
sts will ‘disappear’ into the seam when the Gloves are sewn together.
4. We suggest that you wind this yarn into balls by hand, rather than using a ball winder.
5. To prevent yarn from becoming tangled, slip ball into a ziplock bag. Zip bag, leaving an
opening just large enough for the strand of yarn to emerge.
