You are viewing: How To Sew Fingerless Gloves
The Fingerless Gloves are a perfect accessory for cold and cooler weather months! They can be useful for outdoor adventures, or perfect for a little extra hand warmth while still allowing for some mobility indoors.
How to measure hand circumference: Using a flexible tape, measure around the palm of your dominant hand, just below the knuckles, excluding the thumb.
