Sharing my newest gift project for a coworker (just in case she’d like to use something nicer than stretchy bandages to cover a cast). This is a quick intro not a full demo.
Using soft acrylic fibre I created a tube with an opening for the thumb and fingers. This project is super lightweight yet created double thick. Having used the ribber to create this, it has an easy adaptable stretch and should easily fit over a cast. No pattern was used I simply created it as I went - it worked up very quickly.
Project has inner and outer layer and these measurements are the outer layer (so double that)
38 rows from the fingers edge to the top of the thumb hole
4 rows of the hand where the thumb hole is open
90 rows from the bottom of the thumb hole to the elbow
FUTURE OUTLINE FOR SHORTER FINGERLESS MITTS:
20 rows from finger to thumb hole
4 rows of hand (with thumb hole)
38 rows from bottom of thumb hole to wrist.
