This is my first time knitting a pair of gloves (or mitts) and I’ve gotten completely lost. I’m trying to do the Fingerless Gloves in this pattern: Mikado Fingerless Gloves. I’ve done fine so far but I can’t make heads or tails of the instructions for the gusset. Could anyone make them a bit clearer for me? It would be much appreciated.
Help with thumb gusset please! I'm lost!
[FONT=Verdana] K1, inc one st by working (p1, k1) both in next st, inc one st by working (k1, p1) both in next st, work to end of rnd
k1, then p1 and don’t drop that stitch but k1 into it, so you have two stitches from that one stitch.
Then k1 and don’t drop that stitch but p1 into it, so you have two stitches from that one stitch.
knit to the end of the round.
you are doing this twice per increase round so you have and increase on both sides of the thumb. the p and k then k and p will make the increases stand out.
Hope this helps.
