Rainbows for your hands!
In order to use this PDF you will need to know how to knit, purl, and knit in the round. All other steps are explained in picture tutorial fashion to create a wonderful pair of rainbow gloves!

Any colors can be used! The only annoying factor I found--was all the ends to weave in. So many ends.

Enjoy all the colors while keeping your hands warm! I love rainbows.

*See attached PDF for full instructions*
