Materials:
• 383 meters / 419 yards of fingering weight yarn
(shown in Wollmeise 100% superwash, colorway
Wasabi), about 100 g / 3,5 oz
• 2,25 mm circular needle (or size to get the given gauge) Step 2: Knit the stitch that is marked as a bead stitch and then
long enough for magic loop slip the sewing needle through it (make sure not to piece the
• 166 [172, 182] Japanese seed beads, 3 mm (8/0) yarn!).
• Sewing needle and thread
• Waste yarn
• Tapestry needle

Gauge:
36 stitches and 48 rows on 10 cm / 4” in stockinette stitch.
Take time to swatch because getting the correct gauge is
essential for well-fitting gloves! Step 3: Thread the needle through the first bead.

Size Hand circumference

S 18 cm / 7“
M 19 cm / 7,5“
L 20,5 cm / 8“

Step 4: Slip the bead off the sewing needle.

Notes:
• These gloves are knit using the „magic loop“ method, how-
ever you can use double pointed needles or two circular
needles if you prefer. Just be aware that the instructions
often refer to needle 1 and 2 (meaning each half of the
total stitch count).
• Where stitch counts vary depending on the size, the fol-
lowing format is used: S [M, L].
• At the beginning of each section (chart 1, 2, 3, 4) the round Step 5: Pull the bead from the sewing thread onto the stitch.

Beading Tutorial: Step 6: Go back with the needle through the stitch.
I use a special method to work with beads that are too small for
a crochet hook to thread them on. Here is how it works:

Step 1: Take a piece of sewing thread (about 40 cm /16 “) and

a sewing needle (small enough to fit through the beads, the
blunter the better). Make a knot at the end. Thread about 20
beads on it.

If you don‘t feel comfortable with this method you can always
switch back to threading them on with a crochet hook, as long
as you choose beads big enough. However keep in mind that
bigger beads can be uncomfortable on the palm when carrying
something while wearing the glove.

Knit
Knit through the back loop.
Knit the stitch through the back loop, then
slip a bead on it .
Purl
No stitch
Pick up stitches from the cast on edge.
Pick up one stitch in the gap between the
cast on edge and the stitches which were
on
waste yarn. Work through the back loop to
prevent holes.
For chart 1 only: Slip 1 purlwise, slip 1 as if
to purl tbl, put slipped stitches back on left
needle, k2tog.
For all other charts: knit two together.
For chart 1 only: Slip 1 purlwise, slip 1
knitwise, put slipped stitches back on left
needle, k2tog through the back loops.
For all other charts: Slip one stitch knitwise,
then slip the next stitch knitwise. Insert left
needle into the front loops of the slipped
stitches and knit them together from this
position through the back loops.
Cast on stitches using backward loop
method.
Make one by lifting strand in between stitch

Black horizontal lines indicate stitches which
need to get transferred onto waste yarn (as
necessary for the thumb and the pinky in
the charts). In the given example: The first
round (normal knit symbols) are worked as
usual. On the second round you thread 5
sts on waste yarn.

Description
Change the beginning of the round by slip-
ping all the marked stitches onto needle 1
(without knitting them). Change position of
stitch marker if you use one to indicate the
new beginning of the round. This results in
shifting the beginning of the round to the
right (on the chart).
The stitches shown here are an example.
General rule: red stitches WITHOUT the slip
symbol explained above need to be knitted
as shown (here: ktbl2, p2, ktbl) and then
slipped on needle 2. This results in shifting
the beginning of the round to the left (on
the chart).
Cuff Edge
Cast on 68 [72, 76] sts using the long tail cast-on. Put half of
the total stitch count on needle 1 and the remaining half on
needle 2.
RG + LG:
Round 1-5: Knit
Round 6: *k2tog, yo, k2tog and place a bead on the same
stitch, yo*
Round 7-11: Knit
Round 12: Fold the piece you have knitted until now with knit
side out so that the cast-on edge is touching the stitches on
your needles. *Using the right needle, pick up the stitch from
the cast on edge that corresponds with the stitch on the needle
and place it on the left needle. K2tog with the second stitch on
that needle*:
Cuff
Work „Chart 1, RG“ / „Chart 1, LG“, repeating it 4 times in one
round.
Size S: Leave out the green and yellow columns.

cast on 4 [3, 2] sts using the backward loop method, p1, k2.
LG:
Round 31 [34, 37]: In this round the, sts for the thumb gusset
need to be put on hold. On needle 1, k2, p1, then transfer 22

In round 9 [11, 13] put 14 [15, 16] sts for the pinky on waste
yarn and cast on two sts as indicated in the chart.
Do NOT work round 13 [15, 17].
Fingers:
The last round on chart 3 indicates which stitches will end up
being which finger and mustn’t be worked.
Yellow: ring finger
Red: middle finger
Green: index finger
The pinky isn’t included as the stitches have already been
transferred onto waste yarn.
Transfer all sts onto waste yarn (or spare circular needle in the
same size you’re using or smaller).
RG:
Index finger:
Put 11 stitches from the palm on needle 1 and 8 [9, 9] stitches
from the back of the hand on needle 2. Knit the stitches from
the palm, cast on 2 stitches using the backward loop method
and complete the round by knitting the stitches from the back
of the hand. Work one round k 21 [22, 22]. On the next round
decrease 1 [1, 0] sts by working k2tog, preferably between the
fingers to make it less visible. Continue working these 20 [21,
22] sts in stockinette stitch until the finger is 3 mm shorter than
your index finger when wearing the glove. Work k2tog to the
end of the round (if the total stitch count is uneven: knit the
remaining stitch). Break the yarn and thread it through the re-
maining stitches twice. Pull tight and weave in the end.
Middle finger:
Put 9 [9,10] stitches from the palm on needle 1 and 9 stitches
from the back of the hand on needle 2. Knit the stitches from

ches from the cast on edge to the index finger. Work one round
k 22 [22, 23]. On the next round decrease 2 [1, 1] sts by wor-
king k2tog twice [once, once], preferably between the fingers
to make it less visible. Continue working these 20 [21, 22] sts
as described for the index finger.
