Fingerless Gloves Knitting Pattern PDF with Cable Design – Softly

This knitting pattern shows you how to knit cozy fingerless gloves with a decorative cable pattern and thumb opening.
The gloves are worked in the round using double-pointed needles and are suitable for confident beginners with some cable knitting experience; the pattern is provided as a PDF.

The “Softly” fingerless gloves are a cozy knitting project featuring a decorative cable pattern and a practical thumb opening. They keep your hands and wrists warm while leaving your fingers free.

The gloves are knitted in the round using double-pointed needles. Stitches for the thumb are placed on hold and picked up again later. The cable pattern adds interest without turning the project into an endless knitting marathon.
