Galloway Fingerless Gloves Free Pattern
Fall is just around the corner so I thought it was time to create a pattern for one of my fave Fall essentials. I don’t know about you but my hands are always cold in cooler months. I love fingerless gloves so I can wear them while I’m in the office and can still easily type away! I’m so looking forward to sporting my new Galloway Fingerless Gloves this season!

Warmth and Texture
The Galloway Fingerless Gloves have a unique ribbing stitch to give them gorgeous texture while still being warm.
The pattern is worked back and forth in rows for the cuff, and in rounds for the hand. I designed these to be longer to cover most of your finger tips for that illusion of full coverage mitts while still getting the benefits of fingerless. They also have a longer cuff so they can tuck right under your sleeve or jacket!
I chose to use *WeCrochet’s *City Tweed Aran/HW yarn in Snowshoe for full warmth, and fall feels. This yarn is superior quality and gave the perfect look and function I had envisioned.
A special thank you to *WeCrochet for providing the yarn for this project and sponsoring the Fall Into Autumn Blog Hop.
