In particular, I am a fan of fingerless gloves, and I saw oh so many different kinds. Even better, most of them looked easily done in crochet. So, I set out to figure out a few... Gandalf, Bombur, Ori and Oin. I haven't been able to get a good look at Bofur's yet... but I will!
The free patterns are available on Ravelry. You must be registered to download the pattern.
Here are the movie versions.. and my crochet versions.
I love them! (and I need a small project for a change!) *grin*
ReplyDeleteYes... you do! lol You gotta mix 'em up!
ReplyDeleteWould you say this is doable for a beginner?
ReplyDeleteI think the cabled Oin gloves might be challenging for a beginner... but a determined beginner can do it! It's really a matter of being able to translate the chart, which sometimes comes with experience.
DeleteThat said, if you want to give them a try and get stuck, please feel free to ask questions. Chances are, you're not the only one who's thought about it. ;o)
