More tips on Knitting gloves
To find the correct spot to pick up stitches on the fingers,
look carefully at the knitting, the little V’s are columns of stitches. Pick up
in the center of the V’s running up the finger. If the pickup is in the center
of an upside down V it is in the wrong location. The next pickup is after two
legs of a downward V.
When
joining new yarn, leave a long tail, use it to duplicate stitch over any gaps
or distorted stitches.
Use the
yarn tails to tighten up holes at the base of fingers, by sewing through the
purl bumps on the wrong side of the work around the hole.
The chart below gives you rough amounts based on stocking stitch gloves. You can see a larger version by clicking on the chart.
