Description

These adorable gloves feature painted animal faces on the back of the hand, with a special mechanism that makes the mouth open when the hand is opened.

Materials

• Yarn: Any worsted weight yarn in various colors. (Imperial Needle Size: US 8, UK 6, Metric Needle Size: 5mm)
• Crochet Hook: US H/8 (5mm) or size needed to obtain gauge
• Pair of gloves
• Small amount of black and white felt for eyes and mouth
• Needle and thread

Gauge

18 stitches and 24 rows = 4 inches in single crochet

Instructions

1. Using the main color yarn, start by crocheting a strip that is the width of the palm of the glove and long enough to reach from the base of the fingers to the wrist. This will be the base of the animal face.
2. Crochet the desired animal face onto the strip using different colors for different features.
3. Cut a small slit for the mouth of the animal, leaving enough space on either side for the mouth to open.
4. Attach a small piece of black felt to the glove where the mouth slit is, and attach a small piece of white felt for teeth.
5. Sew a small piece of elastic thread behind the mouth slit and attach it to the glove so that when the hand is opened, the mouth opens as well.
6. Repeat the process for the second glove.

Finishing

Weave in any loose ends and make sure all pieces are securely attached. Your adorable animal face gloves are now ready to wear!
