Striped Dashers Pattern

Fingerless Gloves knitted sideways in garter stitch on straight needles. A clever way of adding colour to the gloves has been achieved with the use of short rows to create stripes and dashes in a contrasting colour. 4 different glove designs have been created by adjusting the length and position of the stripes and dashes. In this pattern you get to learn 3 different techniques with step by step photo instructions, whilst not having to knit in the round with fiddly DPN’s or small circulars or those hated purl stitches.

Inspired by WoollyWormhead’s new short row colourwork pattern book.
