Crème de Noyaux Knitted Gloves by Dagmar Mora
What is Being Made
Crème de Noyaux is a pair of knitted gloves designed by Dagmar Mora as part of the drink-inspired "Pink Squirrel" Woolgirl club parcel collection. These are fitted hand gloves featuring a distinctive almond-shaped rib pattern that references the almond flavoring of the cocktail that inspired the design. The gloves are available in multiple sizes ranging from Women's XXS through XL to accommodate various hand circumferences.
Techniques and Construction
The gloves are constructed using twisted stitches throughout the almond-shaped rib pattern, which creates enhanced stitch definition and allows the decorative motif to show up clearly and prominently. The ribbed construction provides excellent elasticity, ensuring a comfortable and secure fit around the hand. The pattern includes sizing options for both light fingering weight yarn and standard fingering weight yarn, with corresponding adjustments to the finished glove circumference above the thumb.
Stitches Used
- Twisted stitches for enhanced stitch definition
- Ribbing pattern featuring almond-shaped motifs
- Ribbed construction for elasticity and fit
Materials and Yarn Weight
Crème de Noyaux is designed for 4-ply yarn weight, specifically fingering weight or light fingering weight yarns. The pattern accommodates both standard fingering weight and loosely spun fingering weight options, allowing crafters flexibility in yarn selection while maintaining the intended fit and stitch definition. Needles appropriate for fingering weight knitting are required to achieve the proper gauge and stitch clarity.
Sizing Information
The gloves are offered in six size options with corresponding hand circumference measurements. For light fingering weight yarn, sizes range from Women's XXS-XS through L-XL with glove circumferences above the thumb from 14.5 cm to 19.5 cm.
