I figured it would be much easier to keep track of and draft, so that's why I went with the strip design instead of separate fourchettes. Once again, versatility is the name of the game with our number 2 pick. You can wear them past your elbow, or scrunch them a bit to fit below the elbow. When looking at some commercially-produced gloves that I owned, I noticed that there was a single strip of fabric instead of a whole bunch of separate fourchettes. These Fioretto opera-style gloves have a textured pattern running the distance of the top, and a silver buckle/clasp at the opening to adjust the sizing a bit. The multiple fourchettes are more accurate for period costume, but they are a HUGE pain in the ass to keep track of. There was another site that I used to figure out how to make my first pair of gloves, but it's long dead.Īll the sites I looked at when I was first learning how to do this used patterns with multiple fourchettes instead of the single fourchette strip that I describe here. These are some sites where I learned the basics of glove making: - this site is mostly about making period gloves and has some great patterns - this is a vintage book from 1950 about making gloves it is very detailed and talks a lot about leather gloves
