Attach thread to 1st sc at tip of ring finger, sc in same place where thread was attached, sc in each sc across to wrist edge. Ch 4, turn.
   Repeat the last 4 rows (3rd to 6th rows incl) 3 more times, making the starting chain of each finger ½ inch longer than the length from between fingers to finger tip and having the same number of rows on each finger. Fasten off.
   Place Palm over Back of Hand and pin together. Measure up 1 inch from wrist edge on opposite side from little finger and mark with a pin. Measure ¾ inch up from pin mark and mark with an­other pin. Then thread a needle and sew the ¾ inch (between pin marks) neatly together with over-and-over stitches. Fasten end securely. Remove pins. Now measure 2¾ inches up from piece just sewn and mark with another pin (the space between pin and piece just sewn forms thumb opening). With a needle and thread, starting at pin, sew the Back and Palm together neatly all around, fingers included (curving tips of fingers while sewing), to within 1 inch from wrist edge at little finger side. Fasten end securely.

THUMB … With Palm side facing, attach thread to top of thumb opening and make a chain ½ inch longer than length of Thumb. 1st row: Sc in 2nd ch from hook and in each ch across, sc in next 4 sc on palm side of glove, ch 2, turn. 2nd row: * Skip 1 sc, dc in next sc, ch 1. Repeat from * to tip of thumb. Ch 4, turn. 3rd row: * Dc in next dc, ch 1. Repeat from *, making a dc where ch-2 started on previous row, ch 1, skip 1 sc, sc in next 5 sc on Palm of glove. Ch 2, turn. 4th row: Repeat 2nd row. 5th row: * Dc in next dc, ch 1. Repeat from * across, making a dc where ch-2 started on previous row, ** ch 1, skip 1 sc on Palm, dc in next sc. Repeat from ** to lower joining of Thumb opening. Ch 1, turn. 6th row: * Sc in next sp, sc in next dc. Repeat from * across row and across tip of Thumb to 1st sc row, sl st in 1st sc. Fasten off.
