Finger down gloves
Hi,

Quick question. I'm wanting to make finger down gloves, but am unsure on how to join the fingers. Not using a pattern, just winging it.

I've read that you just k2tog, I've also read that I should graft instead. I'm starting the fingers on 2 circs using the Turkish cast on, then moving to DPN's once the fingers are finished.

If grafting is the way to go, do I just ad the extra stitches I've lost during grafting, and how many stitches would I need to graft to close the gaps.

Is there another way to do this?

Thanks for any help or ideas.
