Socks Into Fingerless Gloves
I'm a big fan of fingerless gloves. I love the warmth along with the functionality, not to mention they look wicked cool! This is my first real instructable to please bear with me...
Materials needed:
•needle
•thread
•scissors
•ruler
•snazzy high socks
•basic knowledge of a blanket stitch
Lay Out the Sock
Get your sock and lay it out. Smooth out any bumps to prevent an uneven cut
Cut!
Cut at least one inch before the heel.
The cut part of the sock will now be the bottom on the fingerless glove. I like to keep this part raw without any seaming.

Cut for Thumb
Cut a .75 slit starting 2 inches from the top of the sock.
Seam Thumb Opening
I did a blanket stitch for the thumb seam. You can easily google help with this if you are unfamiliar with this stitch.
I stitched in about .25 inches from the cut. The fabric should roll in a bit to allow the stitch to hide the raw edge.
Try On
You're done! Try it on and see how it fits.
