So sorry for any inconvience. The pictures from most of my post were deleted from my picasa album. I am slowly trying to get them back. It is hard to prioritize which post to do first. If you find a post that is with out photos please email and I will put that post at a higher priority. Thank you.

Fingerless Gloves DIY

I love fingerless gloves.  I think they are cute and stylish.  I was perusing my local thrift store when I found some old sweaters that would be perfect for my project.  I found this sweater vest for $3.
I started with this Sweater Vest from the thrift store. I loved the argyle. I cut 3 inches from the sides of the vest. Cutting the front and back.  Leaving one seam intact.  Using the bottom of the vest gives you a finished edge.
Open your sweater and either zig zag or serge around the outside edges of your gloves. 




Fold your gloves right sides together. Pin edges together.  Stitch along long edge.

Fold the raw edge down 1/2 inch to the wrong side. Making a small casing.


Thread 8-10 inches of 1/8 elastic through the casing.  Tie off your ends.


All finished.

Head out and sport your new Fingerless Gloves.
