See, how she leans her cheek upon her hand! O that I were a glove upon that hand, That I might touch that cheek!
William Shakespeare

Here's a wonderful 1944 Vogue Pattern for Gloves.
There is nothing as ladylike and romantic as Gloves. They have always meant the woman was protected and elegant, a true fashion statement. If you want to get the total effect of the proper lady you could use this pattern to accent several of your outfits. Mitts for a wedding, wrist length for a day dress, longer for your evening gown or even mittens for snow...you need never be without proper hand coverings. Making them for yourself might be a new experiance, but you love a challange!

If you don't know what size of glove you wear just lay your hand flat and measure around your knuckles, but do not include your thumb.

Make some fabulous unique gloves and send us the pictures!
