My Fingerless gloves Pattern

Fingerless gloves
What you need
four 4 mm double pointed needles
2 stitch markers
1 50gram ball feltable wool yarn form Spotlight (it just about uses up the whole ball)
darning needle
Terminology
K1, P1 = single rib pattern.
M1 = make one by picking up the strand between the stitches and knitting into the back of it making a new stitch.
KFB = knit front and back of stitch to make an extra stitch.
sts = stitches.
Method
These fingerless gloves are both the same. You are working in the round from the bottom to the top so no seams to sew, just darning in the ends.
Cast on 44 stitches, spread them onto 3 of the double pointed needles 15sts, 14sts, 15sts.
Knitting in the round work 8 rounds in K1,P1 rib.
Next round for the start of thumb gusset. K1, place marker, M1, P1, M1, place marker, rib to end.
Next 2 rounds single rib.
Next round K1, place marker, M1, K1, P1, K1, M1, place marker, rib to end.
Next 2 rounds single rib.
Continue the last 3 rows until you have 11 stitches between the markers.
Next round K1, remove marker, cast off 11 in rib, remove marker, rib to end.
Next round K1, KFB of next stitch, rib to end. Thumb gusset is finished and now working on the main hand.
Next round Single rib
Do this for 7 more rounds and then cast off. Weave in the ends and you are done.
