not critical.
Work the
cables and then work to the last 8 sts of the round. This stitch and its
increase * remain with the main part of the glove. Work the remaining 7 sts of
the round. Reserve these 7 sts and the 9 sts from the start of the next round
on a thread or safety pins for the little finger. 16 sts. Cont by knitting
into the front and back of the next stitch *,
pulling the yarn tight behind the little finger stitches (the 2 inc sts marked * will form the forchette between the third and
the little finger).
Work 2 or
more rounds depending on how much lower the little finger is than other
fingers, keeping the pattern correct on these 52 sts.
Work

with ends facing little finger.
