I am so lucky to live in Northern Ireland which has featured very heavily in the TV series Game of Thrones. This is me at the Dark Hedges which for GOT fans is The Kings Road. I used the show as inspiration for the following pattern.
Game of Thrones Hand Warmers
To make larger just increase the number of stitches before the pattern.
4 mm needles
50 gms Double knitting yarn
Abbreviations
yfwd – yarn forward. Place yarn to the front of your work then over the needle to knit the next stitch
Sl 1 - slip the first stitch (do not knit into it)
K2tog – knit 2 together
Pattern
Cast on 35 sts using two needle method
Knit one row
Lace Pattern
Row 1 – sl 1 knit wise K18 (yfwd k2tog) seven times, yfwd, k2 (36 stitches)
Row 2 and all even rows knit
Row 3- sl 1 knit wise K21 (yfwd k2tog) six times, yfwd, k2 (37 stitches)
Row 5- sl 1 knit wise K24 (yfwd k2tog) five times, yfwd, k2 (38 stitches)
Row 7 – knit
Row 8 cast off 3 stitches using the stretchy cast off. Knit to the end.
Repeat rows 1 - 8 until you have 7 points cast off
Stretchy cast off
knit two stitches from the left hand needle,* insert left hand needle from front to back in both stitches, knit them together through the back of the loops and slip off the needle. One stitch remains on your right hand needle.
Knit next stitch from left hand needle then repeat from *
To Make Up
PLEASE NOTE THAT THE REVERSE SIDE OF YOUR WORK WILL BE THE RIGHT SIDE WHEN YOU MAKE UP.
With wrong side facing pick up 30 stitches along the top edge of the glove.Left to right.
Knit two rows
Cast off as follows
(cast on 2 stitches into the first stitch on the left hand needle. Cast off 5 stitches)
Transfer the stitch from the right needle to the left needle and then repeat ( )
Fasten off last stitch.
Fold in half and sew cast on cast off rows together from the start to the end of the pattern. Place glove on hand and mark where you require thumb hole. Leave this gap and sew up the rest of the glove.
If you have enjoyed these gloves why not try the shawl to match
