Boho Fingerless Gloves

I blinked and it is already the end of July! The last pattern for the month of July, is another boho accessory. Fingerless gloves, they are easy to make and look fantastic. They are a great accessory since they keep the wrists and hands warm while still allowing for finger movement. Many of us have a problem with regular gloves since the fingers can be too long or they just do not seem to fit right, so fingerless gloves come in handy.

Fingerless gloves are a part of everyday fashion and worn by people of all ages. But over the years they have been used for functional purposes by fishermen, labors, equestrians, and athletes. They became a icon of style and expression in the 1980's, with the Punk Rock revolution and were the signature style of the pop singer Madonna. This week we are mixing fingerless gloves with Boho crochet.

 So here we go a skein:      

                                    Boho Fingerless Gloves

This is a simple design that is great for crocheters of all skill levels since it uses basic crochet stitches and can be completed in less than a day.

The pattern includes sizes for adults and children and includes instructions on adjusting the pattern to make the gloves larger.

So grab those hooks and scrap yarn and lets get crocheting!

Have a hooky day! Lynne

Rainbow Table Runner

Why are table runners popular? Many people decorate with table runners since they are practical and brighten up any table. According to Kim Seybert "They add color, texture, and pattern, instantly transforming a plain table into a focal point of style". They have been used to decorate tables at weddings, graduations, banquets, and outdoor gatherings. 

If you are looking for a way to add color to your table for the next summer brunch or luncheon, then a crochet table runner is a great way to add color and style to your table and show off your crochet skills!

Here we go a skein, fresh off the hook:

                                The Rainbow Table Runner


This colorful lacy table runner is easy to make using basic crochet stitches, and the repeating pattern allows for effortless color changes to create the rainbow color scheme.


The great thing about this table runner is that you do not have to add fringe as the edging gives it a finished look. But just for fun I added fringe done in rainbow colors to give it the Boho look!

I hope you enjoy this pattern and want to thank you for stopping by to check out my free patterns. Make sure to share them with your crochet friends!

Have a hooky day! Lynne
