Brief DIY Notes on Gray Elegance Crochet Gloves
Gloves are worked in the round so that it is seamless.
The first step is to determine the number of stitches you will need. Then, as the piece is worked from base to top, you should thread the appropriate number of beads, counting from top to bottom.
(Note: in this instance, it is not important as I have used the same beads throughout. Just make sure you bead enough beads for an entire glove – otherwise you might have to cut the yarn, thread more beads – which will make the glove a bit “messy”).
The fur yarn is crocheted on separately after the piece is finished.
