Crochet Pattern: Summer Lace Fingerless Gloves

Posted in Best Crochet Patterns on July 21st, 2013 by Amy Yarbrough – 3 Comments
For those of us in the south, sometimes even fingerless gloves can be too much for the predictable sweltering temperatures, but who wants to have to sacrifice style? These are an open palm style of fingerless gloves that are perfect for those simple summer outfits. Starting with a basic pineapple motif, I’ve added a finger loop to the top and flaps on the sides for a good fit. Add cute buttons for a delicate look (as well as practical) and there you have it: a delicate and lacy accessory for summer! Sunshiny Fingerless Gloves

After many different tries I am finally proud to present my very first phone cover! The 1st try worked but I found that I had neglected to take into account the camera, USB outlet, and earphone jack. The 2nd try was better but it covered the touch-sensitive buttons at the bottom. This latest one has it all. Try it out and tell me what you think! Enchanting Phone Cover
