Features of knitting patterns on gloves
There are several significant points in this process that are worth paying attention to.
Yarn thickness and tool number
When creating any type of weave, thick fiber is not used. It is advisable to choose a thread with parameters of 400–450 m/100 g and knitting needles No. 3.
Coloring
- Solid thread will emphasize the grace and originality of the pattern.
- Usage sectional option will mute these parameters.
Exact calculation
The larger the area covered by the design, the more carefully the craftswoman should monitor the design. Even the slightest mistake can ruin a beautiful weave.
Location of patterns
Depending on the location, the drawing is divided into the following levels of complexity.
- Simple: the design is located in the center of the top. This method is most suitable for beginner knitters. Usually this is a single motif, made in aran, openwork or in color.
- Medium complexity: the pattern is located over the entire surface of the upper part from the edge, through the center and on the toes. Most often these are openwork paths or aran braids.
- Complex: weaves alternate throughout the entire fabric. This type of work requires great skill and utmost care.
Advice! For a complex level, to make the work easier, print out the entire pattern of the pattern and cross out the rows as you knit them.
What patterns are suitable for gloves?
Despite the difference in difficulty levels, any craftswoman will be able to choose a model to her liking. In addition, an experienced knitter will be able to adapt any pattern to suit her needs. Meanwhile, the following groups can be distinguished, which are most often used.

Complex Aranas
Diamond-shaped weaves added to the braids only emphasize the beauty and grace of the execution.
Openwork
Using a thin thread and an openwork pattern, you can create a masterpiece.
