Gauntlet Pattern
Eddie Boyum
Time Cave. A heavily-branching sequence. All choices are of roughly equal significance; there is little or no re-merging, and therefore no need for state-tracking. There are many, many endings.
Effects: The time cave is the oldest and most obvious CYOA structure. It is often good for narratives about freedom and open possibility, adventures that could go anywhere, flights of fancy. Time caves tend to have relatively short playthroughs, but strongly encourage replay: they are broad rather than long. Even with multiple playthroughs, most players will probably miss a good deal of the content.
There are two major varieties of gauntlet: deadly and friendly. Deadly gauntlets mostly prune the tree with failure; friendly ones mostly do so with short-range rejoining, and look a bit more like simple branch-and-bottleneck structures. Friendly gauntlets have been vastly more common in recent years, making up a high proportion of Twine works.
Effects: The Sorting Hat is a compromise between the breadth of more open formats and the depth of linear ones. Sometimes the nature of the various branches is signaled to the player; this is kind of important, in fact, because the player is pretty likely to notice the linearity of the second half and might assume that all of their choices will ultimately get funneled into that particular thread. The player gets a lot of influence over how the story goes; however, the author may end up effectively having to write several different games.
Loop and Grow. The game has a central thread of some kind, which loops around, over and over, to the same point: but thanks to state-tracking, each time around new options may be unlocked and others closed off. This is a very general pattern, and can co-exist with many others. Trapped in Time, for instance, is basically a cycle-and-growing Gauntlet; Bee tames its floating-module nature with a year-long loop structure.
Effects: Loop and Grow emphasizes the regularity of the world while retaining narrative momentum. A justification is needed for why whole sections of narrative can repeat: the player-character is often following routine activities in a familiar space, engaged in time-travel, or performing tasks at a certain level of abstraction. This regularity often comes at the price of openness: many stories with a strong Loop and Grow structure involve a struggle against confinement or stagnation.
An important variation of loop-and-grow structures is spoke and hub: the game has several major branches, but they all originate at and return to a central node or set of nodes. The player may go out along each spoke once, or many times.
I think if you hold a piece of poster board around your arm where ever you want them to go to then mark it. Make the pattern a little bigger than you really need to allow for thickness of the leather and you have your pattern. Ought to work.
I think if you hold a piece of poster board around your arm where ever you want them to go to then mark it. Or you could take a strip of leather and go around your arm where you want to start and end and make a mark on the leather and you have the top and bottom measurements. Make the paper pattern a little bigger than you really need to allow for thickness of the leather and you have your pattern. Ought to work.
No problem at all! It's pretty common. I demo basic leather working at Celtic festivals with a living history called the Renaissance Scots. People confuse the two all the time. I've actually learned to lecture about the different pieces of armor- paldrons, grieves, breastplates, etc.I'm planning a pair of grieves for my son to wear to the skate park. How cool would that be- he shows up on the half pipe one day wearing those on his legs!!
Remember the last time you were in the middle of a medieval battle and you didn't have any gauntlets? Don't let that happen again! With this gauntlet patters pack, you'll have all of the instructions and tracing patterns you need to make your own custom gauntlets. Never be under-prepared again!
Learn how to make the gauntlets in the Fantasy Armor series using this pattern and video tutorial! The pattern includes two styles as do all the Fantasy Armor patterns. The pattern can be scaled when printing to accommodate various sizes. See the tutorial for more details.
Last Halloween I decided I was going to become The Witch King of Angmar from The Lord of the Rings. This was quite a daunting task lol. When I finished my gauntlets I thought how nice it would be to have it all laid out nicely for others to make. Because anyone can make these! All the materials are simple and easy to work with, the only thing that this project requires that is valuable is your time!
Since you cut the pieces with that pre-made crease in the middle, all that fold requires is a little work with your hands, just making it bend the way you want. They should all look like this when you are done.
Once everything is dry, do a little shaping to your D3s and D4s. Using the ruler give your D4s a nice clean bend, making them into sharp claws. On the D3s just give them a soft bend so they wrap onto your finger.
This part is even more dangerous. Once again, to get it to work, I had to hot glue the hand piece while the glove was on my hand. I loaded up the hand piece with glue as quickly as possible, since the glue cools fast, and then stuck it onto my hand where it looked right. Be careful, as the brass fasteners will have absorbed the heat from the glue and will be very hot. Carefully hold the hand piece down on your hand until it is dry. It will get hot, but for me it was bearable.
A Leather Demi Gauntlet pattern complete with Viking / Celtic Knotwork that can be carved onto it. Attached is the tutorial video for my first demi gauntlet pattern, a lot of the concepts are still the same for this second version so be sure to check it out and follow along.
This Demi Gauntlet is identical to the Demi part of my Mitten Gauntlet Pattern. So you don't need both. But you can check out that video as well to see how it goes together, which is in all honesty, quite simply.
This video has the demi gauntlet portion in it, but is my full mitten gauntlet build.
Choose from Small, Medium, Large and Extra Large Sizes.
This Pattern comes with both a PDF file, and an SVG for lasers.

I found the tutorial very detailed and easy to follow. If you take your time and start with professionally tanned hides you will be impressed with the end product. I made a set of coon mittens for myself and fox my young son and both patterns and size charts were spot on.
Great thorough and easy to follow tutorial and the patterns are awesome! I am a rookie fur sewer, I have been trapping for about 10 years now and I have always sent my fur out to be tanned so that i could make items out of them myself. Well thanks to Darling I am now most of the way through my FURst ? pair of beaver mitts! Thank you and I look forward to the bomber hat pattern!
Then, take the measurements of all your fingers, add 3mm seam allowance and draw the horizontal lines at the top. I used the palm side measurements also for the back; after I had marked the finger lengths for the palm side, I measured the distance from the top of the rectangle and used the same measurements for the back side. This is because the fingers bend towards the palm and so the back side needs some ease.
The instructions said to only draft one pattern using the middle finger length and simply chop off extra fabric when sewing the other fingers. But I preferred to have a separate pattern for each finger.
At this point I made a toile to check the fit. I had already decided that my future gloves were not going to be made of leather, so I picked a medium weight knit fabric with a small amount of stretch.
Now the gloves were ready but I wanted to add a little bow decoration near the hemline. I briefly thought about making the bows out of grosgrain ribbon but in the end went with the same fabric the gloves were made of.
