Hello Everyone!
It’s day 6 of the 12 days of Christmas, WOW we’re already half way through the blowout! These last 2 blowouts have gone by so quickly I love it. If you’ve been here for any of the previous patterns then you know I’m focusing on quick and easy projects to make for those of you who still need to do some last minute presents for the holidays. I know I can’t be the only one who does this.
Today we’re working on some quick and some what easy fingerless gloves. These gloves use the alpine stitch which is a little more advanced than my other 12 days of Christmas patterns but it still works up so quickly and the stitch pattern is just lovely.
These fingerless gloves along with the rest of my 12 days of Christmas patterns will be available as PDF’s on my Patreon for a small monthly fee. My $6 tier and above will have every pattern released this month.
This post will contain affiliate links. This just means if you make a purchase through some of my links I will receive a small commission at no extra cost to you. I only link to products I personally use and would purchase again.
Let’s get hooking!
Supplies
1 100 gram ball of a weight 4-5 yarn. I say 4-5 because the yarn I used says it s a weight 5 but its either a thick weight 4 r a really thin weight 5. Just check your gauge and make it so the first row fits comfortably around the bottom of your fingers. I used a yarn called peruvian from iceyarns and it is very soft I heavily suggest it.
6mm crochet hook.
Scissors.
Darning needle.
Abbreviations
Ch- Chain
Sc- Single crochet
DC- Double crochet
FPDC- Front post double crochet
Slst- Slip stitch

Before we go…
As always I hope you all enjoyed today’s pattern I love working with the alpine stitch I absolutely love the texture it makes and fun fact it is my fiancée’s favorite stitch! These fingerless gloves work up extremely fast you can make them in an hour or 2 making them perfect last minute gifts. I live in Minnesota and absolutely love fingerless gloves because even though its freeing out I can still use my fingers and have my hand decently warm still.
