Sock Gloves

Turn a pair of socks in to gloves.

Add to Favorites Add Your Version

Find a pair of socks.
Cut a straight line across where the foot part of the sock begins.
Fold inside out and place on your hand. Spread out your thumb and pin out where the edge of your index finger and thumb begin.
Sew along this v-shaped line, removing the pins as you go.
Place this on your hang again and cut a line down the middle of the v-shape.
Fold over, about 1cm, at the top of the glove and thumb hole.
Take a needle and thread and sew around the glove and thumb holes. To sew it correctly start with a hemming stitch, turn this in to a running stitch for 1cm and then make another hemming sitch and so on.

I did the same thing with an old grey sock of mine but I gave it button eyes and stitched it a mouth. It's my sock zombie.

i just finished making these outta Halloween socks lol.

They r soooooo cute and thay are warm, too

i love the tute!

Love this, I'm always looking for a way to use up socks. My husband and son get through no end of the things. If I don't tell her where the material for the gloves comes from I might even get my daughter to wear them!

VERY AWESOME
i wear the big toes of my right feet out really quick, and i collect cute socks, so it's really upsetting when i can't wear them anymore 'cos of the huge holes.
but this way i can keep the cute patterns and actually make them useful! :D
