Step 1Measure and Cut

Measure and Cut
To begin with you want to take some measurements.  You will need the circumference of your wrist as well as the top of part of your forearm and the distance between the two.  With these measurements you will make your pattern.  

On my arm it was wrist 6 inch, forearm 9 inch and length of gauntlet 10 inch

You will want to add 1/2 inch to each measurement for seam allowances.

Your pattern will resemble a triangle with a flattened point.

Transfer your pattern to your fabric of choice and cut it out.

The whole outfit looks cool, (I was thinking of a direct-into-the-camera shot).
