Free Pattern : cable fingerless gloves

Antler Gloves
By Anna Nikipirowicz

The lovely Anna over at Moochka has let me share her free Antler fingerless glove knitting pattern with you.

I started my first pair on Sunday evening and my first attempt at using DPNs! It's a lovely pattern and once you get the hang of having so many needles its actually not that hard. Anna has been on the end of her PC over the past few evenings and offered me great email support (I'm useless at following patterns!). I should have my first glove finished in the next few evenings and I'm already planning my next pair!

happy knitting. Amanda x

They're lovely. I've only ever knit cables once but found them easier than they look. I prefer to knit with dpn's, saves on the sewing up, which I hate.

Denim Daisy Granny Square construction

And here it is all finished last Friday, just in time for a heat wave! Seriously I do love this jumper and it fits so well with a white t shirt underneath, jeans and flip flops. Just waiting for the cold spell so that I can wear it out (rather than around the garden when its cooled down in the evenings!). I haven't written a pattern as such just some helpful notes from my pad. If people want to know how to construct one have added some notes below. As you know the Daisy Granny Square is the design of Sue Pinner from her book Granny Squares published 2013. I do love Sue's book, its packed with so many projects and ideas and the photos are beautiful. The daisy granny square pattern is quite addictive and you soon have a small pile of them in no time! I have an idea to make another one for the autumn in the same Debbie Bliss Rialto DK yarn but all edged in shade 90 honey, I have enough in my stash. Construction Notes: You need to make 18 grann...

Easy eyelet yoke

I’ve recently started my first top down jumper and I don’t know why I didn’t start one sooner! Trying on my easy eyelet yoke sweater in June! It’s so chilly I was quite happy to try it on. With just 4 inches of the body to knit before the border and then the sleeves. I’ve knitted in hand dye Aran yarn from Fiona Sew Happy Creative it’s beautiful to knit with and I’m mixing up some skeins I had in my stash including Bee Happy. I’ll use this for the sleeves blending into a similar colour for the end of the sleeves. Really happy with the fit. I chose the Xl size with 5.5mm KnitPro Cubics tips. I think it will need 600g in total (roughly size 14) pattern by Knitatude if you’ve always wanted to try top down knitting I recommend you try this pattern
