The Design
“Playful stripes meet super-durable yarn.”
Since Regia 4-Ply yarn is perfect for projects that need to be soft as well as durable, it was only natural that we used it for our Accelerating Stripes Fingerless Gloves.
And while we recommend hand washing, Regia 4-Ply holds up to machine washing and even the occasional machine drying if you’re in a hurry.
You can also make a matching with your remaining yarn if desired. For either project, you’ll need to purchase the pattern if you haven't already done so. Happy striping!

These projects can also be made without the stripes–just ignore any reference in the pattern to 'MC' and 'CC'.
