Pointers on making gloves

Recommended Posts

Heya!

I bought large piece of 0.8mm deer nappa by mistake (looked at one item, bought another :rolleyes:) but realized I could use it to learn how to make gloves. I have found a bunch of places that show you how to make a pattern, but none of them really get into the specifics of measuring for fourchettes. Is there anyone here that might have a pointer or two? I have done a bunch of measuring already, but are there more measurements I should get?

i would find a pair (that fits you) at some yard sale or thrift store and deconstruct them. You can find out everything you need to know that way including thread sizes and stitch length.

Doh, that's just too easy.... Why didn't I think of that? Thanks!  :)
