Are crochet gloves easy to make?
Yes and no. Crochet gloves aren’t a beginner project because the construction may be difficult to understand. But once you understand how they are constructed, you’ll find that they are an easy project with long stretches of mindless single crochet.
Why would I want to crochet gloves?
I have found both crochet and knit gloves to be great projects!
First, they are small and portable. Great for stitching on the go and a good summer project because they aren’t going to heat up your lap like a blanket, sweater, or scarf.
Second, they are always useful. If you have enough yarn in the right thickness and you aren’t sure what to make with it, someone you know can use a pair of gloves. They will always be put to use.
Third, there are long stretches of mindless single crochet when making gloves with fingers. You’ll need to pay a little attention through the thumb gusset increases and of course, when you start each finger. But most of the work is very easy.

See this tutorial post for help with basic crochet stitches.
Choose the size that is closest to having the same palm circumference as your actual hand. This dense fabric minimizes holes, but isn’t very stretchy so working close to body measurement is perfect.
There is a lot of variation in hand sizes. Choose the size you will make based on palm circumference. If you are able, try on the glove as you are making it and adjust length as needed to fit correctly. You may need to add or take away rounds in the palm or the fingers to make it “fit like a glove.” If you aren’t making it for someone that lives nearby, make it according to the pattern for a more generalized fit.
Slip stitches will not be included in the stitch counts in the final round of each finger.
Special Stitches
Increase (inc): 2 sc in designated st.
Single crochet two stitches together (sc2tog): Insert hook in first designated st, yo, pull up a loop, insert hook in second designated st, yo, pull up a loop, yo, pull through all 3 loops on hook.

Note: You can add or remove rounds in the palm or in the fingers to customize fit. If you don’t have hand measurements available to work with, follow the pattern as written for a more generalized fit. Be warned though, if you add or remove rounds in the palm it will throw off the instructions for the start of each finger. I don’t recommend trying this until you have a really clear idea of how to start the fingers without the detailed instructions that follow.
Pinky
Fold the glove in half with the thumbhole all on one side, along the right edge of the glove. This will be the palm of the glove and the other side is the back of the hand.
The pinky will be stitched to the top edge of the glove on the edge opposite the thumbhole. You will use the 10 [12] stitches that form a U along the working edge opposite the thumbhole, 5 [6] from the palm and 5 [6] from the back of the hand. Place stitch markers in the 5th [6th] stitch into the working edge on both palm and back sides.
Rnd 1: Continuing from where you finished the last rnd of the Palm, sc in each st to the first pinky marker, sc in marked st and move marker up as work progresses to mark BOR for the pinky, sc in each st to second pinky marker, sc in marked st and remove this marker, ch 2 – 10 [12] sts. You can now remove your original BOR marker from the top edge of the hand.

Repeat Rnd 3 for a total of 12 [14] rnds.
Decrease rnd: Sc in first 2 [0] sts, sc2tog around, sl st in next st – 7 sts. Fasten off with a long tail. Close center by using a tapestry needle to weave ending tail back and forth through tops of stitches of final round. Pull tail to close center, then weave end around once or twice more to secure before taking tail to inside of glove.
