Recycle your old Winter sweatshirts into useful Spring gardening gloves. It’s super fast and easy, no pattern required!
First grab an old sweatshirt.
Turn it inside out and insert your hand into a sleeve. Stretch out your fingers and pin at the deepest and highest points of your hand shape. You can also use the bottom edge of your sweatshirt to make your gloves. I plan to make 3 pairs from one small sweatshirt. I just started with the sleeves.
Take out your hand and mark your glove shape with a marker/pen using your pins as guides.
Sew along your pattern line.
Trim.
On to glove #2. I used my already made glove to make a copy by tracing around my trimmed seams and sewing a bit inside my line. You can do the pin & marker thing again if you want to though.
Turn the gloves right side out and marvel at your awesome free gloves!
These really took only 10 minutes and that included stopping to take pictures. Can’t wait to try them out this weekend in the garden.
