Granny Fingerless Gloves

FREE Crochet Fingerless Gloves Crochet Pattern

I’m a little late this month in posting my pattern for the 2017 Granny-Spiration Challenge by EyeLoveKnots. This month you have a chance to win 5 free crochet patterns from The Hat & I. See Alexandra’s post here for more details and to enter the giveaway. Plus, you get to see other designers and their pretty granny designs when you visit her blog.

So on to today’s free pattern… these gloves work up quick and easy. The most time consuming part of these is probably the weaving in of the ends. It’s a great stashbuster pattern, and can be adjusted in size by switching up your yarn and hook size.

Although simple, I’ve included a few images to help you along.
