GAUGE:

14 sc = 4 in. (10 cm) BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.

Crochet Driving Gloves Reviewed by arleen ayala on 2009-10-22 ***
I just finished one of the gloves. now i know what i have to do. in the reviews here, i read a tip left by one of the reviewers and that tip helped to confirm that i was seeing things the same way. so thanks. another thing, maybe because im left handed the fingers did not fall in the same order that the pattern says it is. the middle finger on the pattern was actually the ring finger for me. so you should work on whatever finger is there as you go along. keep trying the glove on. very cute gloves but the patterns needs to be revised to easier reading and an illistration drawing of the first step in shaping the hand. below is a picture of the finished glove minus the button.
