HOW TO DO THE ANGEL STITCH

Insert your hook into the next stitch and pull up a loop. Do this three times. Four loops on hook. YO and pull through all 4 loops. Chain to secure. Now use this new space (made when you chained) and do 3 sc’s.

To start:
Do 25 SCFD sts, sl st into beginning st to form a ring, (Use the extra stitch on the end to sl st into)

Round 1
ch 1 and do 9 AS’s all the way around. To end the round, use the stitched shown below to do your last AS.

Rounds 2 – 10
Place a marker to mark the first st of the round. Then continue in one continuous round. To work the AS’s on the second row, you will be skipping a st and working in the next two sc’s on top of the AS from the previous row. Then using the large stitch in between the AS’s to complete the 4 loops you need. As shown in the picture below. Do this for 10 total rounds.

Make sure that you have 9 AS’s on every row, the rows are diagonal.

Round 11
When you have 10 rounds of AS’s then sl st into next stitch where you would usually be starting your next stitch. And ch 6. Sl st your chain onto the big stitch in between the AS’s, same place where you were finishing an AS. Then continue your AS’s as normal until you reach your thumb again.

Round 12
The last AS of round 11, you will not complete fully. Gather your stitches as normal for the AS, and chain 1, only don’t do the 3 sc’s worked into the top, instead sc into the first sc of the chain of the thumb space. Then sc into the remaining 5 chains of the thumb space. Then continue AS’s as normal for the round, until you reach the thumb again.

Round 13
sc into the first sc of the thumb, then do 2 sc dec’s , then sc into last st of thumb. Then continue AS’s as normal until you reach the thumb again.

Round 14
You should have 4 sts left of the thumb, sc dec twice, then continue doing your AS’s as normal.

Round 15
You should have 2 sts left of thumb, sc dec using these last 2 sts and then place a marker to mark this first stitch. Now using the same stitches you were using to make your AS’s, instead this round you will be doing a sc in them. Do this all the way around. (20 sts)

Rounds 16 – 18
For 3 more rounds, working in one continuous round put 1 sc in each st around. (20 sts)

After last round of sc’s, sk a st and sl st into next stitch, ch 1 and cut your yarn leaving enough of a tail to be worked in with a tapestry needle.

THE WRIST

Round 1
Turn your glove around and do a sc attachment to the bottom wrist part of glove. Sc into the following 4 sts. Then sc dec , sc 1 into the next 5 sts, then sc dec. Repeat for round.

Round 2 – 4
