This free fingerless gloves crochet pattern features a variation of the cross stitch. They are crocheted in a fine yarn, which takes a bit longer for them to crochet, but it results in a nice stretchy and comfortable pair of gloves to wear while reading or typing at the computer.

These fingerless gloves are designed to fit small hands, however, they are easy to adjust to any size that you need. They are nice and stretchy, which makes them comfortable to wear. They’d make for a great last-minute Christmas gift for all the ladies on your list.
And if you like, I’ve designed a matching beanie and cowl with the same yarn and stitch pattern. Or, check out the rest of the collection of crochet fingerless gloves here on CNC.
