How To Make Gloves

 

How to Make Gloves http://www.instructables.c http://www. instructables.com/id/How-to-Make-Gloves/ om/id/How-to-Make-Gloves/

This is a mockup, hence crappy fabric and visible stitching. Do a bunch of these!

A finished, fingerless glove made with this method. In this instructable, I will show you how to draft your own glove pattern and make a pair of gloves. You can use this with any fabric, leather, vinyl, or similar material, stretchy or not. Hands are complicated 3D shapes with many degrees of freedom of movement. Gloves need to accommodate this and are as such more complicated than 2 pieces of hand-shaped fabric sewn together. SUPPLIES:   For drafting: -duct tape (or something similarly flexible) -paper (preferably tracing paper or something similar) -a disposable glove (latex, nitrile, whatever you have on hand [HURHUR])

-a pencil -a permanent marker

 

-sharp scissors For construction: -fabric -thread -pins -Fray-Check  Fray-Check (optional, but nice to have) -a sewing machine and/or a needle and lots of patience Step 1Terminology and Key

 

 

Trank - the hand-shaped part part that constitutes constitutes most of the glove Fourchettes - the little pieces of fabric that go between your fingers Thumb - the part that goes on your thumb (derp) Fourchettes are one of the most overlooked parts of gloves, but they are VERY important for comfort and mobility of your fingers. Key:

 

-darker fabric color is the "right side", or the side of the fabric that you want on the outside of your glove -lighter fabric color is the "wrong side", or the side of the fabric that you want on the inside of your glove Step 2Drafting Your Pattern

1.  latex glove 2.  tons 'o duct tape

 

 

 

  There are a lot of ways to do this, but I llike ike to start with the coat-your-hand-in-tape method 8D Put the disposable glove on your non-dominant hand (I'm right-handed, so I put it on my left hand), and layer strips of tape all over the latex glove. Have a friend help you cut tape strips if you can, it's a lot easier that way. Make sure you get a nice, thick layer all over your hand, especially between your fingers and around joints. Once you have coated your hand in tape, trace a line from the tip of your pinkie, down the side of  your hand, to your wrist. This will be your trank seam.

 

Step 3Drafting Continued Continued:: Fourchettes

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Trace a loop starting from the tip of your pinkie that follows the side edges of your fingers and the outer edges of your finger webbing. What you want to end up with is a strip of fabric that goes from the tip of your index finger to the tip of your pinkie, and is about the width of the side of each finger. Step 4Drafting the Thumb

 

  Trace a loop around your knuckle and draw a line up the side of your thumb, stopping at the tip. Step 5Cut the Pattern

 

  Cut along the first line we drew (the seam on the pinkie side of your hand). Once you have done this, you should be able to pull the whole thing off your hand and continue cutting along your lines normally.

I cannot stress this enough, but BE CAREFUL when cutting the tape off your hands. Be patient, since the last thing you want to do is hurt yourself or ruin your pattern.

 

Step 6Trace Onto Paper & Preliminary Edits

Lay your tape hand down as flat as you can. If your tape hand fingers are wildly splayed outwards, mess with them until they are basically straight out. Once you've traced your tape hand, you need to add your cuff and seam allowances. You can do this by adding an outline around the original tape hand shape. I generally use about a 1/8" (3.175mm) seam allowance, but you can adjust as needed. This is generally what your pattern pieces should look like (with notes for the most common edits you'll need to make). Once you're happy with your paper pattern, cut it out, lay down your pattern pieces, pin, and cut your fabric*. I would recommend doing a few mock-ups on cheap fabric before cutting into your nice fabric. *If you have Fray-Check and you are using woven fabric that tends to fray, apply it to the edges of all  your pattern pieces after cutting them out.

 

Step 7Installing the Thumb

i.e. the right side of the thumb fabric is touching the right side of the trank fabric Sew the side seam of the thumb from the tip to the notch. You can try it on to see if it fits and for amusement value. Once your thumb is stitched together, turn it inside-in. Make sure your trank is inside-out (i.e. right sides together) and put the thumb in the thumbhole. Stitch the thumb into the hole.

 

Step 8Attaching the Fourchettes

 

  Pin your fourchette strip to the trank, right sides together. For each finger, sew along the front until you get to the trench between the current and next finger, then knot your thread and do the same for the back of the current finger. Step 9Finishing

 

 

This is a nice stitch for doing invisible hems. Sew the side of the trank and hem. GLOVES GET!! Step 10Improving Your Design

 

  Your first glove will probably not Make fit 100% properly. Thislearn is often case whenever new to pattern drafting or glovemaking. a few mockups, fromthe your mistakes, andyou're you will soon have a perfectly-fitting glove pattern made specifically for you. Feel free to ask me questions and please let me know if there's anything I can clarify in here, especially my diagrams. Step 11References and Derivation

 

  These are some sites where I learned the basics of glove making: http://www.glove.org/default.php  http://www.glove.org/default.php - this site is mostly about making period gloves and has some great patterns http://vintagesewing.info/1950s/50-hmg/hmg-toc.html  - this is a vintage book from 1950 about making gloves; it is very detailed and talks a lot about leather gloves There was another site that I used to figure fi gure out how to make my first pair of gloves, but it's long dead.

 

All 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. The multiple fourchettes are more accurate for period costume, but they are a HUGE pain in the ass to keep track of. 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. 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.

 

How-to-Make Cotton Gloves  http://www.instructables.c http://www. instructables.com/id/How-to-Make-Cotto om/id/How-to-Make-Cotton-Gloves/ n-Gloves/

Hi, this is an evening's project to make your own pair of gloves from left-over scraps. Nash needed some librarian gloves for the museum as they don't make cotton reading gloves big e enough nough for his mitts. You can also make gloves like these for halloween costumes, re-inactment events, or if you're super nerdy like us...to read old books without damaging them. You will need: 1. White Cotton Fabric Scraps, knits are easier to work with. 2. Button-thread 3. Glovers or leather needle size 12. 4. A Sheet of Paper 5. Scissors

 

Step 1Trace Your Hand On A Sheet of Paper

Take your dominant hand and trace it on a piece of paper. You should have something that looks like a Thanksgiving project for making a turkey if you remember that from your childhood classroom days. You can see Nash's hand is much bigger than mine in the picture. Trace the hand of the ACTUAL person you will be making the glove for.

Step 2Cut Out The Master Pattern

 

 

Take a pair of scissors and cut out the pattern you made

 

Step 3Trace Your Pattern

Taking your pattern, fold your original fabric in half and trace around the hand with a half inch seam allowance. This is because hands are not flat. You will need to flip the pattern for the left and right hands. When you are done, you will have 2 hands

 

Step 4Cut Out The Fabric

 

  Cut out each of your gloves carefully. You will have 4 pieces of fabric when you are done. If you are worried about the fabric moving while you cut, you can put in 3-4 pins to make sure it doesn't move while you work.

Step 5Pin The Fabric Together

 

  Pin each glove together right side to right side so they won't move while you sew them together.

Step 6Sew The Gloves Together

 

  Thread your glovers needle and start sewing them gloves together with a basic whip stitch. You can use any small locking stitch to go around the edges. This generally takes 30-45 minutes per glove depending on your stitch size.

Step 7Turn Inside Out 

 

  Voila you're done! You can also do a simple hem around the bottom as well.

 

Your Glove Size http://www.glove.org/Modern/glovemeasure.php

To find out your glove size, measure (in inches) around your hand with a tape measure across your palm. You should use your dominant hand, the right if you are right-handed, and the left if you are left-handed. Glove Size Equivalents Some manufacturers indicate glove sizes by number and others by letters standing for Small, Medium, Large, etc. We always indicate the size of  a pair of gloves the same way the manufacturer does. Use the table at the right to translate between "letter sizes" and "number sizes". Sizes for UNISEX Gloves and Mittens Circumference of the Hand in Inches

A) Measure around the hand at the fullest part (exclude thumb)

B) measure from the tip of the middle finger to the base of the hand

C) Use the LARGEST of these two measurements for the correct size glove D) If you are RIGHT handed, take measurements from your RIGHT hand F) If you are LEFT handed, take measurements from your LEFT hand G) The number of inches measured equals the size of the glove (example: A 7" measurement equals a size 7 glove) GLOVE TERMS Glovemaking is an old art and has some terms that may be unfamiliar to even the most ardent glove enthusiast. Cabretta: A thin, fine leather made from the skin of Brazilian hair sheep. Cape or Capeskin: A superior thin leather made from the skin of South African hair sheep. Clute Cut: A glove style with a one piece palm with no seam at the base of the finger. There are seams along the fingers on the inside. Cuff: The cuff is the part of the glove extending beyond the palm that covers the wrist and part of the forearm. Fourchette: The piece of leather sewn between the fingers on some kinds of gloves. Also known as the sidewall or gusset. Gauntlet: A very long cuff to protect the forearm.

 

Grain: The side of the leather that had the hair, i.e. the outside. Full Grain has the original surface, whereas corrected grain has been abraded to make the leather smoother and more uniform. Gunn Cut: A glove style with seams at the base of the fingers. The seams between the fingers are on the back of the glove. Gusset: The piece of leather sewn between the fingers on some kinds of gloves. Also known as the sidewall or fourchette. Split: When a thick piece of leather is split into two thinner pieces, the top piece will have grain (Top Grain) and the bottom piece will be suede on both sides. The bottom piece is the split. Welt: A thin piece of leather sewn into the seam to strengthen it. Often a welt is used in the seam at the crotch of the thumb and the base of the finger

 

n o morir en el intento) Tutorial: Cómo hacer un par guantes (y no intento)  

http://costureroreal.blogspot.mx/2008/11/tutorial-cmo-hacer-un-par-g http://costureroreal.blogspot.mx /2008/11/tutorial-cmo-hacer-un-par-guantes-y-no.html uantes-y-no.html Publicado por Alassie en 06:14

Sin duda los guantes son los accesorios menos vistos, y mas dificiles de hacer. Pero una vez conseguidos, dan un realismo al conjunto muy espectacular, sobre todo esos guantes renacentistas, adornados y bordados..

El truco principal de los guantes no es ni la costura, ni la decoracion, si no el corte que demos, el patron que utilicemos condicionara el resto de nuestra obra. 

La forma mas sencilla y basica de hacer un patron de guantes es la siguiente:

 

a) Poner la mano sobre el pedazo de papel o tela sobre el que vayamos a hacer el patron base. b) dibujar el contorno de la mano, siempre haciendo los dedos un poco mas grandes de lo que los tenemos, nos permitirá luego tener espacio para las costuras. c)cortar doble este patrón. d) Medir y cortar tres escudetes (luego explico) para coser a mano entre los dedos . e) coser juntas las dos piezas f) Para mas libertad de movimiento, corte el pulgar y cosalo aparte en angulo.

El escudete consiste en una forma de V que forma entre los dedos.

Recomendacion: haz tu primer guante en material de deshecho, es posible que no salga bien.

Explicacion:

 

 

Para hacer un patrón básico que se ajuste a sus propias mediciones, tome un pedazo de papel de dibujo y pon la mano izquierda plana sobre ella con los dedos de la mano cerrada. Dibuja todo el lado en lo

 

que respecta a la muñeca en cada lado. 

Abrir cada par de dedos, a su vez, y poner un punto en la base de cada uno. Dibuja cada dedo estando segura de que todas las lineas son paralelas. Alargar el patrón por cerca de un centimetro, inclinada ligeramente a cabo en el borde opuesto al pulgar.

 

Dobla el papel por la mitad a lo largo del borde del dedo índice y corte en el doble papel, haciendo las rendijas entre los dedos de las manos en la parte delantera de la mano de una cuarta parte pulgadas más

corto que el correspondiente a la parte del dorso.   Recorta el agujero para el pulgar.  

 

Usando el modelo como una guía para la longitud del dedo pulgar, cortar como se muestra en la Foto.  

 

Asegúrate de que la línea AB en el pulgar es exactamente la misma longitud que la línea AB en el dorso y que las líneas BC en cada sección son la misma longitud.  

Cuando esté seguro de que su patrón es tan exacta como se puede hacer, es localizar a un pedazo de cartulina o tarjeta delgada y corte cuidadosamente.

Marca el agujero del pulgar.

 

Guarda tu patrón con el menor número de pliegues como sea posible.

Tutorial de Cosplay VIP: Como hacer guantes para Cosplay (rapido y facil !)  Posteado por: kazumi en: diciembre 13, 2009 http://kazumikawaii.wordpress.com/2009/12/13/tutorial-de-cosplay-viphttp://kazumikawaii.wordpress.c om/2009/12/13/tutorial-de-cosplay-vip-como-hacer-guantes como-hacer-guantes-para-paracosplay-rapido-y-facil/ Estos son los guantes de mi Cosplay

Especial de Navidad ^^! ya pondre el tutorial de ese cosplay también; pero preferí separar el tutorial de los guantes, porque es algo que puede servirnos para diferentes cosplays. Esta es una tecnica de 5 minutos para hacer guantes,, super facil y de buen resultado. la cosa es que la tela sea licra licra,,, si es de una tela normal, va el metodo profesional que pondre mas adelante ^^ .

 

Empecemos,,,empecemos!,,, reserven 5 minutos para hacer sus guantes cosplay  jejeje ok, en Pic1 de la derecha, veran la silueta de mi mano, asi es, lo primero que haran sera doblar la tela en dos, un lado sera para una cara del guante y el otro lado para la otra. Tomando del reves la tela, pongan su mano con los dedos bien separados y van bordeandolos. luego ya solo es pasar la maquina ñpor el borde que marcaron. En Pic2 ven mi mano metida en la tela, antes de que la corte, asi podran ver donde les falta afinar; por ejemplo, notaran en la imagen que mi muñeca esta muy suelta aun. Una vez que todo este ok, ya solo será cortar los espacios entre dedos, recuerden dejar un tanto de tela de sobra (allí la importancia de que sus dedos hayan estado bien separados el momento de marcar) Finalmente lo volteamos de la otra cara y .. Pic3!

jejej,,, el guante esta finalizado!

Como les digo esto funcionara super bien solo con tela licrada, sino, no podran meter la mano por la parte de ña muñeca o empezara a deshilarse,,, para esas telas no licradas; pues toca el metodo profesional,,,le digo asi porque es mas laborioso; pero con un resultado de fabrica! (asi hice mi guante de Sailor) subire el tutorial a futuro ^^
