Knitting: Finally Fingers
16 kudoz

Finally Fingers

I made fingers!

Before the fingers
I made fingers!

Learn It

This project was made as part of a Craftsy course:
Mittens and Gloves Galore »

Instructions

The class uses mostly DPNS but several of us used circular needles so don't shy away just because you like one or the other methods. In the later lessons circular needles are introduced as well. It's a very fun class either way.

Difficulty:

Category: Knitting

Type of item: Accessory

For: Unisex

Style: Classic, Cute


Materials

Berroco Vintage DK yarns I used 32 in circular needles because I used the Magic Loop method and knit two-at-a-time, but you can do one-at-a-time on DPNS or 2 circular needles if you prefer.

What was your inspiration?

I have been knitting for 50 years and consider myself an advanced knitter but I've never done fingers....now I really am advanced (LOL).

What are you most proud of?

FINGERS!

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

This course is great for the beginning knitter but moves along through some more advanced techniques for the more experienced knitted also so don't worry about your skill level, it's a fun class to take.
