Free Pattern - Nearly Gloves II

I fell in love with the Ziti yarn from Artfibers when I went to San Francisco. It reminds me of a sparkly mosaic. The photo doesn't do it justice! Here's a photo of the front and back of the gloves.The good folks of Artfibers sent me to Marnie Maclean's website for her Nearly Gloves. I wanted something a little more ornate and based this on the cables and eyelets dishcloth I did a while back.


Materials:

Ziti yarn (1 ball) Artfibers
Size 13 needles
Cable needle (I actually used a ball point pen)


Special Stitches:

yo - yarn over
skp - slip a stitch, knit the next stitch, pass the slipped stitch over the knitted stitch.
k2tog - knit two stitches together
C4F - slip two stitches onto cable needle and move the needle forward. Knit the next two stitches. Next knit the two stitches located on cable needle.
pm = place marker
CO - Cast on
BO - Bind off
