Long Long Lacy Gloves

Lois S. Young

Simultaneously elegant and whimsical, Lois S. Young’s over-the-elbow fingerless gloves accessorize any sleeveless top or dress. The gloves begin at the upper arm with an edging pattern worked back and forth in rows until the circumference of the arm is reached. Stitches are then picked up along the straight edge of this strip, joined for working in the round, and worked downward to the fingers in alternating panels of stockinette and faggot stitch. A few crystals look like tiny buttons on the upper edging.
