Purl & Jane Tavistock Gloves

Tavistock Gloves – Purl & Jane by Jane Ellison

I designed the pattern that I’m sharing with you today, the Tavistock Gloves, because a super lovely knitting beginner, who I helped her knit her first pair of socks, wanted to knit gloves….but on two needles (even though she totally bossed knitting on dpns!) so I designed these for her.

It took me a while because the last time I wore hand knitted gloves they were were fingerless ones when I was a teenager but I had designed Frankie Fingerless mittens so I used a combination of memory and the Frankie pattern to get these right.

This pattern was launched at Yarndale 2019 and lots of people with different hand sizes tried these gloves on and they fitted every one, they are magical gloves! They are also magical – and so simple – to knit.
