Effortless Crochet Net Gloves Pattern for Beginners & Pros
These net gloves are versatile: they offer light hand coverage without bulk, making them ideal for mild weather, fashion layering, or adding a soft, feminine detail to outfits. The open weave provides breathability, while the overall design remains elegant and understated.
Whether paired with dresses, blouses, or casual outfits, the finished gloves contribute a touch of refined charm — practical enough for day wear, yet stylish enough for a special occasion.
You begin by creating a foundation chain sized to fit around your wrist or lower palm — this sets the base for the net glove.
In the middle section you work a series of looping stitches and chain‑spaces (common in net‑style patterns) to build the mesh body of the glove, allowing for flexibility and that open, airy texture typical of net gloves.
As you progress, you maintain consistent spacing so the net remains even and stretchy. Toward the end you finish by closing off the edge (either with a simple border or a slip‑stitch round), secure all yarn ends, and optionally shape the wrist or cuff area for a neat, polished finish.
Some Importent Points:
Materials and Uses
-
Uses: You create an elegant, stretchy, and comfortable fingerless mesh glove perfect for accessorizing and providing light coverage.
-
Materials: You use cotton yarn (the tutor recommends a Lamia brand cotton or one with good stretch). You need a 3 mm crochet hook or a size appropriate for your chosen yarn weight.
Special Features
-
High Elasticity: The pattern utilizes the treble crochet (Trc) stitch, which produces a looser, more open fabric with a high degree of stretch, making the glove easy and comfortable to wear.
-
Fast Completion: The open mesh design and reliance on simple, tall stitches allow you to work up the glove very quickly.
-
Built-in Shaping: You use a simple increase method at the beginning of the hand area to automatically widen the glove for the palm before you create the thumb opening.
Level of Difficulty
The project is rated as Easy and is suitable for all skill levels. You only need to know how to execute the basic chain, slip stitch, and treble crochet (Trc) techniques.
Tutor’s Suggestions
-
Adjust Your Size: Determine the starting size entirely by your wrist measurement. You must ensure the initial chain count is a multiple of two; adjust your measurement up or down slightly to meet this rule.
-
Choose the Right Hook: To maintain a soft, loose feel, you must use a hook size appropriate for your yarn. Thicker yarn requires a thicker hook.
-
Prioritize Comfort: Ensure you do not make the starting chain too tight. The finished glove should fit securely but have a slight amount of slack for comfortable wear.
-
Use Increases Sparingly: When you create the hand section, only work enough new spaces (the tutor creates two increases per hand) to allow the glove to pass comfortably over the widest part of your hand.
Conclusion
You successfully complete your mesh fingerless glove. The finished product is a comfortable, flexible, and quick-to-create accessory that offers a delicate, lacy look.
Final Tip
You will want to use your increase stitches strategically and limit the increases to just two new spaces for the palm. Over-increasing the count will make the glove too loose in the hand area.
