Australians knitting alpaca gloves in February may seem a little strange – but I’ve just been reminded we’re now into Autumn and the weather has been so topsy-turvy lately who knows when we’ll get a cold snap.
Have you tried Lincraft “Lima” yet? It’s a lovely soft and cuddly alpaca/acrylic/polyamide blend. I promise once you try it you’ll find a load of “projects” to use this lovely yarn for….and if you make a pair of these gloves on you won’t want to take them off….
You can see from the photo below these gloves are the perfect compliment to a business outfit. Although they are warm and comfortable they are also elegant and stylish.
You’ll find the pattern fits an average width ladies hand and we’ve included within the pattern clear instructions to adjust the finger and wrist lengths – you’ll get a perfect fit everytime.
Knitted on 2 needles and requiring only 2 x 50g balls of yarn you’ll probably want several pairs….
Here’s where you’ll find more about our alpaca knitting patterns for these gloves… and whether you use our pattern or one of your own – do pop into your nearest Lincraft store and look and feel their “Lima” alpaca blend yarn…it’s an absolute delight…..as usual…happy knitting till next time….
