Since woven fabrics fray, this step is necessary for keeping your gloves from falling apart.Īfter hemming the fingers you can continue with Step 6 and attach the wrist piece to your glove.Are you tired of looking for perfect leather work gloves? Searching and getting various options, however, no clue what to choose? Just be sure to keep the tips of the fingers open, of course.Īfter Step 5, you’ll need to fold over the top of each finger and hem them. When putting the glove together, continue to follow the directions exactly as they are for full-fingered gloves until Step 5. You do not need to taper the ends of the gusset pieces. Measure from the edge of the pinky to the edge of the index, then the edge of the index to the middle, and middle to pointer. In Step 1 part 8, instead of measuring your fingers for the gussets, measure the lines of your pattern.Then add a ¼ to ½ an inch of extra length to the fingers because you will need to hem them later on. You want to cut off the glove pattern at your knuckles. There are two changes to keep in mind when creating the pattern in step one: However, you still need to make sure the fabric fits around the width of the fingers. What to change for fingerless (half-finger) glovesįingerless gloves are slightly easier than full-fingered gloves because it doesn’t matter as much if you get the length of the fingers wrong. Measure the length in between the glove’s fingers so you know what size to make your gusset pieces. You should end with a front and a back glove piece, a front and a back thumb piece, three gussets for between the fingers, and one wrist band.Ĭut off the tips of the fingers slightly above where you want them to be so you can hem them to the correct length.Add a ¼ inch seam allowance to all of your pieces.You can use whatever width you want for the wrist band. Create a rectangle using this length to create your wrist piece.These are the gussets that go in-between the fingers.Create 3 rectangles with tapered ends using your measurements in the previous step.Measure the inner length of the space between your fingers, and the width of your fingers.If you don’t these will be backward when you cut them out of the fabric.Flip over the back glove and thumb pieces.Trace the front and back glove pieces and the front and back thumb pieces to a separate sheet.This part will not be sewn together so that you can still get the glove over your hand.Add another ¼ inch to the bottom section of the outer wrist.The back thumb piece will connect to the glove along the straight line on the side of the glove. The front thumb piece (palm side of the hand) will connect to the front of the glove along the curved line.Add an extra ¼ inch around the sides of the thumb.Draw a curve from the inner joint of the thumb to the center of the wrist.We’re adding extra pieces (gussets) to the inner fingers, so only the outer two fingers need extra padding to fit.Add an extra ¼ inch to the outside edges of the pointer and pinky fingers.

I’ve included numbered illustrations to help you get this part right, so be sure to follow along as best you can. If you get this part wrong, the glove will not fit right.
