Ambidextrous glove having widened glove body and method of producing the same

A method of using a glove in a processing operation, said method comprising steps of:

• selecting an appropriately-sized glove for a person's hand, wherein the glove comprises a body defining an interior cavity for receiving the person's hand, wherein the body includes a thumb region, an index finger region having a first side that together with a first side of the thumb region defines a thumb crotch therebetween, and a wrist region, wherein an imaginary first plane extends generally along the first side of the index finger region, downwardly beyond the thumb crotch, and through the thumb region;
• an imaginary second plane is oriented at right angles to the imaginary first plane and extending along a narrowest width of the wrist region;
• wherein the imaginary first plane and imaginary second plane intersect one another at an intersection region;
• and an imaginary third plane is oriented parallel to the imaginary first plane and at right angles to the imaginary second plane, said imaginary third plane passing through narrowest width of the wrist region;
• wherein the imaginary second plane intersects a first side of the wrist region at a transition region;
• and wherein the transition region is located outwardly from the intersection region in a direction moving away from the imaginary third plane and towards the imaginary first plane;
• inserting the person's hand into the interior cavity of the body;
• spacing at least the person's wrist a distance away from an interior surface of the wrist region;
• performing a task while wearing the glove;
• and
• removing the glove after performing of the task.
