Make your own touchscreen gloves

Touchscreen gloves are a great gadget, especially in winter, that will make using your smartphone much easier. However, such gloves are relatively expensive at the moment. With simple tools, you can make gloves that allow you to operate your smartphone's touchscreen yourself.

How to create touchscreen gloves

Another advantage of the DIY project is that you can customize your gloves to your needs and also decide the design.

• To create them, you will need a pair of well-fitting gloves, a thread capable of conducting electricity and a medium sized needle. A marker or tailor's chalk can also be helpful for this project.
• Put on the gloves and use the marker to mark the points with which you touch the display. Do this procedure on each finger that you want to upgrade.
• Now sew a star-shaped crosshairs on the markings. Make sure that the thread also leaves a seam on the inside of the glove. This must be so pronounced that your fingers have contact with it.
• Sew all threads carefully and secure the seam. Once all the seams are complete, you can use the gloves.

What you can expect

The yarn is high quality, and meanwhile you can also resort to different colors. At the same time, the yarn, which you can buy in specialized stores or even on the Internet, is very robust, so you can also wash the gloves. Especially with high-quality yarn, the wetness does not affect the conductivity of your homemade touchscreen gloves.
