Materials and Exact Measurements

Yarn: Worsted weight (#4), smooth, low-split fiber for crisp stitch definition
- Yardage per pair: Small 120 yds (110 m), Medium 140 yds (128 m), Large 160 yds (146 m)
Hook: 5.0 mm (US H-8); alternatively, adjust to 4.5 mm or 5.5 mm to meet gauge
Tapestry needle: for weaving in ends
Stitch markers: 2, for round tracking and thumb placement
Scissors and measuring tape
Optional: 1–2 yds (1–2 m) clear elastic sewing thread for cuff reinforcement; conductive thread for touchscreen pads

Gauge (in stitch pattern): 16 hdc in the third loop x 12 rounds = 4 in (10 cm) square with 5.0 mm hook

Finished measurements (relaxed, approximate):

Small (S): 6.25–6.75 in palm circumference; 7.25 in length
Medium (M): 7.0–7.75 in palm circumference; 7.75 in length
Large (L): 7.75–8.75 in palm circumference; 8.25 in length
Select size by measuring around knuckles (excluding thumb). For best comfort, allow 0.5–1 in (1.25–2.5 cm) negative ease.

Level of Difficulty

Beginner to advanced beginner
Techniques: chain (ch), slip stitch (sl st), single crochet back loop only (sc blo), half double crochet (hdc), hdc in third loop (hdc-tl), rounds in joined method, light seaming

Special Features

Authentic knit-look ribbing created with hdc in the third loop
Stretchy cuff worked flat, then joined for secure comfort
Simple, afterthought-style thumb opening for easy shaping
Flexible design: make them fingerless or full-coverage

Sizing Tips

First, measure your dominant hand at the widest point across the knuckles (excluding the thumb).
Next, choose a size that gives 0.5–1 in of negative ease for a snug, stay-put fit.
Additionally, try on after the first few rounds of the hand; then adjust hook size or stitch count if needed.
If you’re between sizes, choose the smaller size for a sleek glove fit.

Abbreviations

ch = chain, sl st = slip stitch, sc = single crochet, sc blo = single crochet in back loop only, hdc = half double crochet, hdc-tl = half double crochet in third loop, st(s) = stitch(es), rnd(s) = round(s)

Step-by-Step Instructions with Time Estimates

We’ll begin with the cuff, which is worked flat. Then, we’ll join it into a loop, pick up stitches for the hand, and, finally, shape a simple thumb.

Sizes: S (M, L). Read through each step before starting.

Step 1: Swatch and Gauge (10–15 minutes)

First, ch 18 and work hdc-tl rows (or in the round) until you can measure a 4 in (10 cm) square.
Then, count: you should have 16 sts across and 12 rounds vertically. If your count is higher, go up a hook size; if lower, go down. Consequently, this prevents sizing surprises later.

Step 2: Cuff (25–35 minutes)

To begin, ch 13 (S/M) or ch 15 (L) for a 2.25–2.5 in cuff height.
Row 1: Starting in the 2nd ch from hook, sc across (12 or 14 sts). Ch 1, turn.
Row 2: Sc blo across. Ch 1, turn.
Subsequently, repeat Row 2 until the cuff (slightly stretched) equals your palm circumference minus 0.75 in (2 cm). Typical counts: S 26 rows, M 30 rows, L 34 rows.
Importantly, do not fasten off.

Pro tip: Additionally, place a marker every 10 rows to simplify counting later.

Join Cuff (5 minutes)

Next, bring the short ends together with the right sides facing.
Seam closed by sl st through both layers across; then turn the cuff right side out so the seam sits inside.

Set Up for Hand (5–10 minutes)

Now, work 1 round evenly around the cuff edge, picking up 1 st per row end: S 26 sts, M 30 sts, L 34 sts.
Join with sl st; ch 1 (does not count). Then place a marker in the first hdc of the next round for consistency.

Step 5: Hand to Thumb Opening (25–35 minutes)
Rnd 1: Hdc-tl in each st around. Join with sl st to the first hdc.
Rnd 2–4: Repeat Rnd 1.

Meanwhile, try on; the fabric should hug gently yet stretch comfortably. If you need extra room, increase 2 sts evenly on the next round by working 2 hdc-tl in one st, twice. As a result, you’ll gain subtle width without bulk.

Step 6: Create Thumb Opening (10–15 minutes)

First, align your marker with the inner wrist (over the cuff seam).
On the next round, stop 2 sts before the marker; then:
S: ch 6, skip 6 sts; M: ch 7, skip 7 sts; L: ch 8, skip 8 sts.
Afterwards, continue hdc-tl to finish the round and join. Consequently, this chain bridge becomes the thumb opening.

Step 7: Upper Hand (20–30 minutes)
Rnd 1–5: Hdc-tl in each st and into each chain across the thumb bridge. Join each round.

Additionally, try on after 3 rounds to confirm length. If you prefer longer gloves, simply add 1–3 more rounds.
For light tapering, optionally work the final round as: [hdc-tl in next 7 (S) / 8 (M) / 9 (L) sts, hdc2tog] around. Thus, the top narrows slightly for a refined look.

Step 8: Optional Fingerless Finish (5–10 minutes)

Alternatively, if you want fingerless gloves, switch to sc blo and work 2 clean edging rounds to prevent rolling.
Or, for a crisp knit-like edge, work one loose round of sl st. Then fasten off.

Step 9: Thumb (10–15 minutes)

Next, join the yarn at the side of the thumb opening.
Rnd 1: Work sc evenly around the opening (1 st per chain and 1 st per side post), aiming for S 14 sts, M 16 sts, L 18 sts. Join.
Rnd 2–4: Hdc-tl around; join each round.
Finally, for a snug top, finish with 1 round sc blo and fasten off.

Weave In Ends and Light Block (8–12 minutes)

First, weave in tails along stitch paths to preserve the knit-look texture.
Then, lightly steam or mist and pat flat. Avoid over-stretching; otherwise, elasticity may decrease. Consequently, your gloves will keep their shape and bounce.

Total making time per glove: about 60–90 minutes, depending on size and experience. Therefore, a pair generally takes 2–3 hours.

Common Mistakes and Quick Fixes

Twisted cuff strip: Before seaming, lay the strip flat; then double-check that it isn’t twisted. If it is, simply rip back a row or two and realign.
Uneven pickup around cuff: If the first hand round ripples, you picked up too many stitches; conversely, if it cinches, you picked up too few. In either case, frog the round and redistribute evenly.
Missing the third loop: The third loop sits behind the front and back loops; tilt the round slightly toward you, and, if needed, practice on a scrap swatch.
Tight slip stitches on cuff seam: Keep slip stitches relaxed; then, let the next row set the tension. Otherwise, the cuff may lose stretch.
Thumb gaps at corners: Pick up one extra stitch at each corner; next round, decrease those two extras for a gap-free join.

Variations You’ll Love

Fingerless version: Stop after Step 7, add a neat sc blo edge, and, consequently, enjoy easy typing, texting, and photography.
Full-coverage version: Alternatively, after Step 7, add 3–5 more rounds, then decrease evenly for a rounded fingertop; finally, seam closed if you prefer.
Color play: Moreover, try a contrasting cuff, subtle two-row stripes, or tonal fades for modern flair.
Fiber upgrades: For extra luxury, choose merino or alpaca blends; however, always re-check gauge.
Tech-friendly tips: Additionally, embroider small patches of conductive thread on the thumb and index pads for touchscreen use.

Tutor Suggestions (Beginner-Focused Guidance)

First and foremost, mark the first hdc of each round to keep joins tidy and prevent spiraling.
Also, check fit frequently. If the glove feels loose, go down a hook size; if it’s tight, go up. By adjusting early, you’ll save time.
For invisible joins, always sl st to the first actual hdc (not the ch-1); then snug the join gently to blend.
If your cuff relaxes with wear, discreetly run a strand of clear elastic along the inside of the ribbing for subtle reinforcement.
Furthermore, relax your hands and shoulders every few rounds. Consequently, your tension will stay even, and your stitches will look consistent.

Finishing and Care Tips

Weaving ends: Secure at least 3 in (7.5 cm) of tail; then reverse once for extra hold. As a result, ends stay hidden and secure.
Blocking: Steam lightly or mist and lay flat; avoid heavy blocking, since excessive stretch can reduce recovery.
Washing: Hand wash cool, squeeze gently (never wring), and dry flat. Alternatively, for machine-safe yarns, use a delicate cycle and a mesh bag.
Storage: Finally, fold and store flat to maintain cuff elasticity; avoid hanging, which may stretch the fabric over time.

In short, the Peaceful Crochet Gloves Trendy Knit-Look Pattern combines calm crafting with modern style and reliable structure. Because the steps are clear, the transitions are smooth, and the fit is customizable, you’ll finish with gloves that look knitted, feel plush, and wear beautifully.
