Colors of the Rainbow Fingerless Gloves

The Colors of the Rainbow Fingerless Gloves are the best simple accessory to wear indoors when you want to add a little bit of extra warmth to your ensemble or if you just want to add some pop of color to your outfit. These easy crochet fingerless gloves are worked up with multiple colors to give it a bright and bold look, but these would look great in any combination of two or more shades. This design is worked in the round and comes in sizes from small child through large adult.

NotesNOTES
•Gloves are worked from the cuff up; make the foundation chain loosely to allow for stretching
•Change color on every BACK POST round; carry the yarn inside the glove or fasten off, whichever you prefer
•Starting chain does NOT count as a stitch
•Each round is started in the same stitch as your starting chain, unless directed otherwise
•The end of each round is joined by slip stitching in the first hdc of the round, not the starting chain

Thanks for your comment. Don't forget to share!

These are so cute! They're the perfect thing to cheer you up on the most blah of winter days.

I love these patterns that have instructions from baby to adult. These are easy. Use the rainbow color palette or use some of your left over yarn from other projects. Pattern is easy to follow.
