Step 1: Left Hand: Using 2 strands of Wool-Ease yarn, e wrap counterclockwise to peg 19. Turn around on peg 19 and knit back to peg 1. Complete 12 rows. |
Step 2: Thumb: After you have knitted back to peg 1, wrap pegs 24, 23, 22, 21, and 20. This will be the top of the thumb. Knit back to peg 19. Then turn and knit the other way to peg 20. Decrease the loop on peg 20, and continue decreasing one loop on the thumb side (5 times) until you are back on the original 19 pegs. |
Step 3: Knit 2 more rows on the 19 pegs. |
Step 4: Cut one of the yarns and add in the Color Wave yarn. Knit 3 rows and take them off of the loom, very loosely. |
Step 5: Sew the side of the glove up using the yarn needle and the Wool-Ease yarn. Leave a hole for the thumb. |
Step 6: Right hand: start on peg 24 and wrap clockwise to peg 6. Complete 12 rows of knitting. |
Step 7: Thumb: When you have knit back to peg 24, knit on pegs 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. Decrease the loop on peg 5, and continue decreasing every row on the thumb side (5 times) until you are back on the original 19 pegs. |
Step 8: Using the yarn needle and one strand of yarn, sew up the side of the glove, leaving the hole for the thumb. |
Step 9: Make one stitch in the middle of the end where the fingers come out. The stitch will go in between the four fingers on your hand. (I used a needle with regular sewing thread to tack this space between the fingers.) |

Knifty Knitter Fingerless Gloves
Baby Mitts for the Knifty Knitter Flower Loom
Knifty Knitter Baby Booties and Mitts Pattern |
Skill level: Beginner
Step 1: Using one strand of the blue yarn and one strand of the white yarn (holding them together as if they were one strand), wrap the 12 pegs according to the method shown in the Round Loom instructions. | |
Step 2: Wrap and “knit off” five rows of knitting, using the hook as shown in the Round Loom instructions. |
|
Step 3a: Using the crochet hook, take the loop from the 1st peg and then from the 2nd peg. | |
Step 3b: Pull the 2nd loop through the 1st loop and place the loop back on the 2nd peg. | |
Step 3c: Take the loop from the 3rd peg and then from the 4th peg. Pull the 4th loop through the 3rd loop and place the loop back on the 4th peg. | |
Step 3d: Continue in this manner until you have taken the 12th loop through the 11th loop and placed the loop on the 12th peg. You will now have 6 loops on the loom. | |
Step 4: Wrap the loom 2 more times. Now some pegs will have 3 loops and others will have 2 loops. For the pegs that have 3 loops on them, knit the bottom 2 loops over the top loop. For the pegs that have 2 loops on them, knit the bottom loop over the top one, just like normal. When you are finished, there will only be one loop on each peg. | |
Step 5: Wrap and knit off 9 more rows. Thread the blue yarn needle with one strand of yarn, and sew the yarn through the loops on the pegs (pulling the loops off the pegs as you go). When you have sewn through all the pegs, pull the two ends of the yarn to gather the material and tie them in a tight square knot. (This is the same method you would use to finish a hat on the Round Loom.) Repeat Steps 1 – 5 to make a mitt for the other hand. |
|
Step 6: You can string a ribbon through the holes in the top of the mitts or, using one strand of yarn, make an I Cord (see directions below) and put a pom-pom on each end to string through the holes.
