I love fingerless gloves. They really do pull a set of accessories together. They add a touch of warmth, without being super bulky and awkward. I live in a particularly cold climate, so I like to wear my fingerless gloves over a pair of small, stretchy, knit gloves. They keep my hands just toasty enough for a trip from the house to the car.
The Ever-Changing Cowl turned out to be so thick and squishy, that I knew the stitch pattern would make wonderful gloves. The lovely texture and lofty yarn, make these gloves a pleasure to touch and wear.

Repeat row 2 until you have 8 rows total. Swatch should measure 4” W x 4” H.

I have written tutorials for the Spike Stitch (Lsc), Working into the 3rd LO, and an Alternate Joining Method when working into the 3rd LO.
I have added many pictures to help you along the way.

Instructions
Band
With 6mm Hook (or the hook used to obtain gauge)
Begin with a long tail, as you will be using it to sew the ends on the band shut.
1. Ch6. Hdc in 2nd ch from hook and each ch across. Turn. – 5 st
2. Working in the 3rd LO: Ch1. Hdc in 1st st and each st across. Turn. – 5 st
Repeat row 2 until you have a total of 14 (16, 18) rows. Ss into the end of your 1st row to join. (See figure 1) You will be working your 1st row of the body of your glove into the side of your hat band. (See figure 2)
From here, this pattern is worked in the round, but you will be turning after each round is completed. To make this pattern easier to work, beginning at row 2, you will be starting each round in the 2nd stitch (unless stated otherwise). This is the stitch immediately to the left of where you placed your slip stitch in the previous row. If you look at figure 3 below, you will see that I have ch1 and worked my 1st hdc into the next st. When you do this, you must remember that the stitch where you placed your slip stitch in the previous row, is where you will place your last stitch. (See figure 4)
Body
1. Ch1. Work 22 (26, 28) sc evenly around the band. Ss to 1st sc. Turn. (This is the wrong side of your work) – 22 (26, 28) st
2. Ch1. Hdc in the next st and each st around. Ss to 1st st (See alternative method above). Turn. – 22 (26, 28) st
3. Working in the 3rd LO: Ch1. Hdc in next st and each st around. Ss to 1st st. Turn. – 22 (26, 28) st
4. Ch1. *Hdc in BLO of next st, hdc in FLO of next st. ** Repeat from * to ** around. Ss to 1st st. Turn. – 22 (26, 28) st
5. Ch1. *Hdc in FLO of next st, hdc in BLO of next st. ** Repeat from * to ** around until there are only 2 sts left unworked. Turn. (See figure 5) – 20 (24, 26) st
6. Ch1. Hdc in same st (not the next st as previously stated) and each st around. Ch2, and ss to 1st st (See alternative method above). (See figure 6) Turn. – 22 (26, 28) st
7. Ch1. Work 2 hdc into ch2 sp. Working in the 3rd LO: Hdc in next st and each st around. Ss to 1st st. Turn. – 22 (26, 28) st

10. Repeat round 9.
11. Ch1. *Lsc in next st 1 row beneath, sc in next st. ** Repeat from * to ** around. Ss to 1st st. Turn. – 22 (26, 28) st
12. Ch1. Hdc in next st and each st around. Ss to 1st st (See alternative method above). Turn. – 22 (26, 28) st
13. Working in 3rd LO: Ch1. Sc in next st and each st around. Ss to 1st st. Bind off. – 22 (26, 28) st
For the band, use the beginning end of your yarn to sew the ends of the band shut. Turn your glove inside out, and whip stitch through the bottom bar of your first row, and 3rd loop of your last row. (See figure 5) When done properly, the seam should be almost invisible when you turn your glove right side out. (See figure 6)
Weave in all your ends, and you’re done!
