Six Fingered Glove

I needed a six fingered glove for a duel. (yes, there is a story there). Six fingered gloves don't usually show up in a store so I decided to make my own.

I used Jamieson & Smith Shetland wool, jumper weight. I knit this on size 3 needles, doublepoint. I picked a cuff pattern out of Alice Starmore's Fair Isle Knitting. In retrospect, I should have picked a cuff pattern that was an even multiple. It may also have been nicer to have several paeriers instead of one wide design.

I modified this pattern, adjusting the number of stitches to account for five fingers instead of four.
