Materials Needed

Yarn: DK weight wool blend
Needles: US 6 (4.0 mm) double-pointed needles
Gauge: 22 stitches and 30 rows = 4 inches in stockinette stitch
Stitch markers (optional, but helpful for thumb gusset)
Yarn needle for weaving in ends

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Cast On

Begin by casting on 48 stitches. Distribute the stitches evenly across three double-pointed needles (16 stitches on each needle). Make sure to join in the round carefully, ensuring that the stitches are not twisted.

2. Ribbing

Work in 1x1 ribbing for 10 rounds. To do this, knit 1 stitch, then purl 1 stitch, and repeat this pattern until you complete the round.

3. Cable Pattern

Now, we will start the cable pattern. Follow these rounds:

Rounds 1-4: k2, p2, C4F (cable 4 front), p2, k2
Round 5: k2, p2, k4, p2, k2

Repeat Rounds 1-5 until the piece measures 5 inches from the cast-on edge.

4. Shape Thumb Gusset

On the next round, follow these instructions:

k2, p2, C4F, p2, k2
Place a stitch marker
Make 1 stitch (m1), knit 1 stitch, make 1 stitch (m1) again, and place another stitch marker
Knit to the end of the round

Continue in the established pattern, increasing 1 stitch inside the markers every other round until there are 13 stitches between the markers. Once you have 13 stitches, place these stitches on a holder for the thumb.

5. Continue the Glove

Continue working in the established pattern for an additional 2 inches.

6. Cuff

Work 5 rounds in 1x1 ribbing (k1, p1). This will create a snug cuff for your glove.

7. Bind Off

Bind off loosely to ensure that the cuff remains stretchy.

8. Work the Thumb

For the thumb, transfer the held stitches back to your needles. Pick up and knit 3 stitches from the hand. Work in 1x1 ribbing for 5 rounds. Finally, bind off loosely.

9. Finishing Touches

Weave in all ends using a yarn needle to give your gloves a polished look.
