Jen Hagan Design Beechbone Gauntlets PDF

Jen Hagan Design’s Beechbone Gauntlets are a study in contrasts. Worked in the round, each begins at the Beech Leaf Lace patterned cuff and transition to k1, p1 rib at the inside wrist for a snug fit. At the onset of the rib, the herringbone pattern begins at the back of the hand, continues as the thumb gusset and palm are worked in stockinette stitch, and carries on to the hand's rem. Then the fingers are worked in stockinette stitch palm-side, and herringbone continues on the public side. The thumb is worked entirely in stockinette stitch Fingers, and thumbs are worked in the round on double-pointed needles. The lace pattern is charted and written out.
