How To Crochet Granny Square Fingerless Gloves

Materials Needed

1. Yarn: Baby yarn in two colors (as used in the video: a solid color + white).
2. Hooks:
   • 2.5 mm crochet hook for making the granny squares.
   • 2.0 mm crochet hook for the rest of the glove.
3. Scissors.

Step 1: Making the Granny Squares

Each square is made up of multiple rounds.

Round 1:

1. Make a slip knot.
2. Chain 4 and join with a slip stitch into the first chain to form a ring.
3. Into the ring:
   • Start with a starting double crochet. (Pull up a loop, wrap it around your hook, hold with your finger, insert into the ring, and complete the double crochet.)
   • Make 2 regular double crochets (total = 3 double crochets).
   • Chain 2 (to form the corner).
   • Repeat [3 double crochets + chain 2] three more times until you have 4 groups of 3 double crochets (to serve as the sides).
4. To complete the last corner:
   • Instead of chaining 2, insert the hook at the top of the first double crochet, yarn over, and pull through all loops to make a half double crochet.
   • Round 1 is complete.

Round 2:

1. Start with a starting double crochet in the corner (chain 2 space).
2. Into the same corner:
   • Make 2 more double crochets (total = 3 double crochets).
3. Skip the next 3 stitches and go to the next corner:
   • Make 3 double crochets + chain 2 + 3 double crochets.
4. Repeat the pattern [skip 3 stitches, cluster + chain 2 + cluster in each corner] until the end.
5. For the last corner:
   • Instead of a chain 2, make a half double crochet at the top of the first double crochet.
   • Round 2 is complete.

Round 3:

1. Start with a starting double crochet in the corner.
2. Into the same corner:
   • Make 2 more double crochets (total = 3 double crochets).
3. Between groups of stitches from the previous round:
   • Make 3 double crochets.
   • For corners, make [3 double crochets + chain 2 + 3 double crochets].
4. Continue this pattern around until the end.
5. Finish with a half double crochet at the top of the first double crochet to complete Round 3.

Round 4 to Round 5:

1. Repeat the same pattern:
   • 3 double crochets between groups and 3 double crochets + chain 2 + 3 double crochets at corners.
2. Adjust the square size according to your hand size. The video uses 5 rounds.

Finishing the Square:

1. At the end of Round 5:
   • Chain 2 and make a slip stitch into the top of the first double crochet.
2. Cut the yarn and fasten the square.
3. Make 4 identical granny squares for the gloves (2 for each hand).

Step 2: Joining the Granny Squares

Joining Two Squares for Each Glove

1. Hold two squares side by side.
2. Use the second yarn color (e.g., white) and create a slip knot.
3. Insert the hook into:
   • The first chain-2 corner space of the first square.
   • The first chain-2 corner space of the second square.
4. Pull through the yarn and begin slip stitching:
   • Work into the back loops of matching stitches on both squares.
   • Continue slip stitching along one side until you reach the corner.

Joining the Top and Bottom Edges:

1. At the top and bottom of the squares:
   • Join only the first 3 stitches on each side.
   • Leave the remaining stitches free to create the thumb hole.

Step 3: Creating the Thumb Hole

1. Build a foundation for the thumb hole:
   • Attach yarn and make 4 chains.
   • Skip the first chain and work single crochets into the remaining chains.
2. Join the rows with slip stitches at the edges.
3. Continue working:
   • Alternate rows of single crochets and join the edges as you go.
   • Work until the thumb hole opening is complete.

Step 4: Working the Rest of the Hand

1. Attach yarn to the base of the glove.
2. Create the cuff:
   • Work rows of single crochets to build height.
   • Join edges using slip stitches (if needed) for a snug fit.
3. Repeat for the second glove.

Final Step: Wear and Enjoy

Once both gloves are complete, try them on and enjoy your warm, homemade granny square gloves!

Notes:

1. Adjust the sizes and rounds based on your hand measurements.
2. If you're new to crochet, practice granny squares separately until you're comfortable with the technique.
