It bothered me that when sewing folks show off their historical costumes online they are almost never wearing gloves. So I spent time trying to find instructions on making gloves. Alas there is hardly anything to download. However although Pitman’s Glove Making by Isabel M. Edwards 1934 is out of copyright, I couldn’t find a downloadable link, so I scanned my copy and made one. A fashionable woman in public would have never been seen without gloves prior to the very early 1960s, though I think men dropped the whole glove thing in the 1910s.
I did find one pattern out there for gloves.
