how to knit fingerless gloves with thumb gusset PT3

pattern:
-co 24 sts ( or however manyy you need since i used a chucky weight i didnt need very many)

-knit a 2x2 ribbing (i started with knit first)

-work the rib untill you are happy with the length(i worked 12 rows)

-knit 2 to 4 rows of stock (again since i used chunky, i only needed 2 rows)

-place 2 markers in the middle of your work leaving 2 sts between them (k11,pm,k2,pm,k11 for 24sts)

-knit stock back and forth every other row incresing the first and last sts untill you reach 12 sts between markers(depending on the yarn wieght it might be different)

-on a knit row, knit till first marker, drop marker, put all middle sts on st holder, drop marker,cast 2 sts back on (in place of held stitches), knit the rest

-knit stock for at least 2 more rows (measure over thumb if needed)

-begin 2x2 ribbing untill desired length(usually untill knuckles)

-cast off LOOSE

-measure on your hand(unsewn) and see how long you would want your thumb

-pick up sts from holder,join yarn, and knit stock for needed rows,increasing first and last sts as desired(i increased first row,purl 2nd,cast off loose)

-turn inside out and sew together hand up first then thumb

-weave in ends
