Turning Tide

“MY GLOVES are knitted using two blue shades of Kate Davies’ Milarrochy Tweed, a delicate yarn which gives beautiful results,” says Outi Kater. “The stitch pattern used for the cuffs has small chevrons throughout, giving the cuffs a slightly wavy edge. The palm and back of the gloves are knitted with a slip stitch pattern, which means only one shade is used on each round. After completing the little finger, extra rounds are knitted before working the other fingers, in order to give the gloves a good fit.”
