Ballybrae Fingerless Gloves - Making the thumb hole

Work the first 10 stitches on the hand portion of the glove, then turn and work back toward the edge.

Repeat this for a total of either 5 or 7 rows (small thumb or larger thumb) worked. You will end at the thumb hole.

Stop working on the 10 stitches and switch to working on the lower/longer part. You can either cut your yarn or just leave a long piece in between the last (10th) stitch and the first stitch on the lower/longer section.

Again, work the lower/longer part for 5 or 7 rows (match your work above the thumb hole). The next row (6 or 8 depending on what you have chosen) will be worked from the elbow toward the hand, and you will join the lower and upper sections together.

The moss stitch pattern should be seamless between the two sections.
