| Abstract: |
A back finger portion of a glove is provided which is composed of (a) a modified star pattern piece having four radiating projections, the radiating projections forming a first portion of four back finger parts, the star pattern piece having an inner cutout with a junction edge, and (b) four back finger pattern pieces joined to the four radiating projections respectively, the back finger pattern pieces forming a second portion of the four back finger parts respectively. A glove is provided which incorporates the back finger portion and a conventional palm pattern piece, preferably a flat single palm piece. A method of making the back finger portion and the glove are also provided. The back finger portion and glove produced therefrom is advantageous over gloves produced using one or two conventional four-pointed star patterns, in generating less waste material, in having better stretchability, in having an inherent curvature in the fingers corresponding to the natural curvature of the fingers of a hand, and in allowing the finger tips of the glove to be made from a different material.
