How do you make fingerless duct tape gloves?

Cut strips into lengths you can work with. Form the non-sticky side around your hands leaving enough room to shift your hands inside of them so you can slip the loops on and off. Cover the outside with another layer of tape with the sticky side facing down. When you are done you should have two layers of tape formed into the shape you need. Cover any bare sticky areas that are still showing with more tape until you are satisfied with the appearance and texture. You now have a very poor copy of fingerless gloves.
