About the Oliver Fingerless Gloves

At the beginning of the year I made a goal to make more patterns for men. These gloves and the Autumn Chill sweater certainly fit that bill (and I’ve got a few more planned for next year!). I love the simple colorwork and the classic ribbed cuff on these fingerless gloves. You’ll only need to know how to do a few stitches, including front loop only and back loop only single crochet.

One day only, Thursday November 25th, you can pick up a free copy of these gloves thanks to the Just for Him event hosted by Sunflower Cottage Crochet. You can get all the details, including the coupon code, from the Sunflower Cottage Crochet Website Here! The coupon is good at Ravelry for a free PDF of this pattern, just in time for Christmas makes!

You can also purchase a bundle of all of the patterns included in the Just for Men event for only 8 pounds (Just over $10 US). The Bundle includes all 14 event patterns plus 2 bonus patterns!

The pattern is available as an ad-free PDF from Etsy or Ravelry.

Materials

This is the first time I’ve used the Twill yarn, and I have to say I really enjoyed it! It may easily become one of my favorite yarns. It has great texture and stitch definition and is super easy to work with. I did notice that the Heather yarn is fuzzier than the non-heathered, but I liked them both!

Sizing

Sizes are based on craft yarn council guidelines and are measured around the four finger knuckles of the hand.

  • Men’s Small: 8″
  • Men’s Medium: 8.5″
  • Men’s Large: 9″

A Great Gift

These gloves are soft, warm, and comfortable. They would make a great gift for the man in your life (or anyone with larger hands). If you use a superwash wool (like I did), cotton, or acrylic, they will be washable and easy to care for. When I had my husband try them on for size, he wanted to keep wearing them while working on his computer!

    It’s so hard getting these patterns with the codes. I’ve basically given up trying to get them plus having to go on a computer everyday to down load them is not practical to me. I have a full life away from a computer. Don’t see the reasoning for the codes. And everyone is doing it. Sorry but I’m 70 and still have a responsibility of getting grandchildren through school and taking care of house, cooking, cleaning, laundry and other household chores. What little time I have to relax I don’t want to be chasing patterns and then not being able to get them.

  2. Neither Ravelry or the ETSY will take code. I’ll try the other place.

  3. Just wanted to say thank you for making a pattern like this especially for men with their hand sizing in mind 🙂 it’s just what I’m after and I’m looking forward to supposing my husband with a pair this winter!

    I’d also like to say thanks for being part of the event that meant I was able to get them free today 😀 in my opinion its been one of the best and most useful patterns of this event so far.
