A perfect introduction to cable knitting, the Simple cable knit fingerless gloves are worked flat, back & forth using a circular needle & then seamed up the side after binding off.

Using the circular needle enables you to check the fit of the gloves as you progress through the pattern, but the pattern can also be worked using single pointed needles if you aren't comfortable with using a circular needle. Making a swatch is essential though if you want your gloves to fit well.
