Sizing
Use these body measurements to choose your size. Check the pattern instructions for fit and ease.
Eight Sewlore house proportion blocks, not universal ready-to-wear sizes. Select by hand girth and compare hand length, individual fingers, thumb position and wrist. Hand circumference has 4% negative ease; individual finger ease differs because the gussets taper. These are calculated draft dimensions, not sewn measurements. Digitally checked in Seamly2D; no physical sample has been sewn or fit tested. Make a complete fitting sample in comparable stretch jersey and alter before final cutting.

Recommended fabric: Fine four-way stretch jersey with good recovery. Starting target: 50% usable crosswise and 20% lengthwise stretch; verify with the fabric and finished seams. At 140 cm usable width, allow 0.4 m for G14–G28. At 110 cm usable width, allow 0.4 m for G14–G24, or 0.5 m for G26–G28. Quantities are for one unlined left/right pair. Buy extra for a complete fitting sample, shrinkage or directional layouts.
| Fabric width | Sizes | Estimated amount |
|---|---|---|
| 140 cm usable | G14–G28 | 0.4 m per unlined left/right pair; fitting sample extra |
| 110 cm usable | G14–G24 | 0.4 m per unlined left/right pair; fitting sample extra |

Full pattern details
A wrist-length pair of fitted fabric gloves with separate palms and backs, inset thumbs and six narrow finger gussets per hand. All eight size blocks, G14–G28, are included in one package.
Sizes and fit
Choose by the circumference around the knuckles, excluding the thumb, then compare hand length, fingers and wrist. These are Sewlore house proportion blocks; hands with the same girth may need different finger lengths or thumb placement.
| Block | Hand girth (cm) | Hand length (cm) | Nominal wrist (cm) |
|---|---|---|---|
| G14 | 14 | 15.5 | 10.92 |
| G16 | 16 | 16.5 | 12.48 |
| G18 | 18 | 17.5 | 14.04 |
| G20 | 20 | 18.5 | 15.6 |
| G22 | 22 | 19.5 | 17.16 |
| G24 | 24 | 20.5 | 18.72 |
| G26 | 26 | 21.5 | 20.28 |
| G28 | 28 | 22.5 | 21.84 |
The draft has 4% negative ease across the hand; tapered finger gussets create different ease along each finger. The files were drafted and checked digitally in Seamly2D. Sew a complete fitting sample in comparable jersey, check thumb movement and hand entry, and adjust before cutting final fabric. Product photographs are design previews.
Fabric and skill
Advanced sewing: fine four-way stretch jersey with good recovery. Start with at least 50% usable crosswise stretch and 20% lengthwise stretch, then test the actual fabric, stitching and finished cuff. At 140 cm usable width, allow 0.4 m for G14–G28. At 110 cm usable width, allow 0.4 m for G14–G24, or 0.5 m for G26–G28. These quantities are for one unlined left/right pair; buy extra for the fitting sample, shrinkage or directional layouts. Non-stretch fabric is unsuitable.
Joining allowances are included at 3 mm, with a 10 mm cuff turn-up. The small finger webs require precise marking and stitching; transfer thread marks rather than cutting deep notches. Use a fine ballpoint/stretch needle, matching stretch-compatible thread, fine pins or clips and a removable marker.
Included files
- 24 full-scale pattern PDFs: separate A4, US Letter and A0 files for each of the eight sizes.
- 26-page illustrated English handbook with measuring, fabric testing, cutting layouts, the palm/back gusset map, thumb stations, sewing, fitting and print instructions.
- 8 editable Seamly2D source files and 72 full-scale SVG templates.
- 9 template codes per size, cut as 20 fabric pieces for one left/right pair; grainlines, stitching lines, cutting allowances and match marks included.
Print index
Use one size and one format. Print at 100% / actual size and measure both the 100 mm and 4 in test squares horizontally and vertically. The PDFs have separate size files and no selectable size layers.
