I started to make this pattern with Lion brand Heartland yarn and a 3.75 mm hook. The fit is so tight that my daughter described it as a workout to put on. The pattern is very confusing and seems to have errors, especially at the point of shaping the palm.

This pattern is very confusing. Alos, these gloves seem to be a very tight fit. My daughter described it as a workout to get the glove on. Made with a 3.75 mm hook.

Hello, I am going to try and make this with Alpaca yarn and a 3.5mm hook. The label says the 10x10cm gauge is 23 stitches x 30 rows - how can I amend the pattern to fit this yarn and hook size?

for the person who posted previous comment, you need to use a stitch marker.

I don't understand the pattern it's very hard to fallow with such choppy instructions

Very hard to follow pattern. Nothing lines up right using the sc and ch 1 and joining with sl st. It all blends in together and you can't tell where you are.
