I managed to overcome “SSS” or “second sock syndrome” and I have completed my fingerless gloves for fall!
These Simple Fingerless Mitts were very easy to make, despite being on DPNs. I had a single skein of Berroco Vintage DK in orange with a few slight tweed flecks. I knit on size US 6 needles because I didn’t have any 5s. Gloves still turned out and fit pretty well. They might have been too small on the smaller needles.
I probably only have 8-10 knitting hours in these gloves. I like to take my time and make sure to keep my dpns from getting all boogered up. I used 46 grams or 132.5 yards of yarn. And I did make one significant mod:
- knit 20 rows total of ribbing at the cuff
I wanted to make sure the gloves were long enough to tuck inside the sleeves of my coat. And I was very happy with this mod. And the best part is that I only used half a skein, so I can knit a whole second pair for a Christmas gift.
Now I’m off to refill my cup. I wish everyone a very happy Friday! And as always, Happy Knitting!!!

I hope you are refilling your cup with a pumpkin spice latte, because that would be very thematically appropriate 😛
I try really hard to like pumpkin but it still sounds better than it tastes to me, lol
I may have to make some of those with my one skein of berroco weekend! hmmm…
I think I could make two complete sets with one skein using this pattern 🙂
cool! (or..well..umm..warm, actually)
I see what you did there, lol
I love the gloves and the color is perfect! But now I need to go and brew a cup of coffee… 🙂
They look really cosy. I’ve just started my first ever pair of gloves – hope they turn out as nice as yours.
