Tutorial Tuesday: Crochet Bow Finger-Free Cuffs // Free Crochet Pattern!

Hello there and Happy Tuesday to you!  So I wanted to share a super quick and easy pattern on how to keep your fingers warm while you're crafting away! I absolutely love finger-less gloves especially during the colder seasons so I modified a past pattern and created a swift version to share! Enjoy!

The Ingredients

Less than 1 Ball of Lion Brand's Vanna's Choice in Scarlet // Medium 4 // 100% acrylic

Craft Scissors

Crochet Hook: H/8 5.00 MM

Tapestry Sewing Needle

 Abbreviations

sc=single crochet

hdc=half double crochet

[number]tch[s]=turning chain[s]

sts=stitches

The Pattern

I measured the circumference of my head/hair, my measurements will be a bit bigger because of my protective braids, though I would recommend sizing your own and crocheting to that specific sizing. [Note: You can always return back to the beginning to create a snug fit, with one round of single crochet.]

First, I chained for 21 (depending on your wrist size you might want to modify.

RND1: HDC the entire round, into all of the STS, at end of the round, SS to connect work and turning chain accordingly.

RND2: SC the entire round, into all of the STS, at end of the round, SS to connect work and turning chain accordingly.

RND3: HDC the entire round, into all of the STS, at end of the round, SS to connect work and turning chain accordingly.

RND4: HDC the entire round, into all of the STS, at end of the round, SS to connect work and turning chain accordingly.

RND5: SC the entire round, into all of the STS, at end of the round, SS to connect work and turning chain accordingly.

RND6: HDC the entire round, into all of the STS, at end of the round, SS to connect work and turning chain accordingly.

*LEFT HAND

You will SC only for 5 STS for the start of the row. To begin the thumb hole, you will CH 5.

After CH 5, skip 5 STS and SC into the remaining STS.

*****************************

*RND7: SC the entire row, into all of the STS, at end of the round, SS to connect work and turning chain accordingly.

*RIGHT HAND

You will HDC only for 15 STS for the start of the row. To begin the thumb hole, you will CH 5.

After CH 5, skip 5 STS and SC into the final ST.

*****************************

*RND7: SC the entire row, into all of the STS, at end of the round, SS to connect work and turning chain accordingly.

Continuing on.....

BOTH

RND8: HDC the entire row, into all of the STS, at end of the round, SS to connect work and turning chain accordingly.

RND9: SC the entire row, into all of the STS, at end of the round, SS to connect work and turning chain accordingly.

CREATING THE BOW

CH for 11

RND1: HDC the entire row, into all of the STS, at end of the row turn work to continue.

RND2: SC the entire row, into all of the STS, at end of the row turn work to continue.

RND3: HDC the entire row, into all of the STS, at end of the row turn work to continue.

RND4: SC the entire row, into all of the STS, at end of the row turn work to continue.

RND5: HDC the entire row, into all of the STS, at end of the row turn work to continue.

RND6: SC the entire row, into all of the STS, at end of the row, SS to complete work.

You will cut a piece of yarn, not too long. (I didn't really estimate the length!)

Threading the yarn, into the sewing yarn needle, you will scrunch the center of the bow. (Like the photo above!)

After the bow is tied and scrunched, you will want to stitch it by sewing the bow to the wrist cuff. I sewed the middle of the bow to the front of the wrist cuff. (You will have to try the wrist cuff on, to find the exact position! :)) Now it is complete to start the tutorial over again to create the other half!
