Abstract

The invention relates to a prosthetic glove and to a method for producing same, having the steps of providing a first textile blank (10) with a hand rear surface (11) and finger sections (12, 13, 14, 15, 16) extending away from the hand rear surface (11), providing a second textile blank (20) (20) with a hand inner surface (21) and finger sections (22, 23, 24, 25, 26) extending away from the hand inner surface (21), wherein at least the finger sections (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26) of the textile blanks (10, 20) are designed to be elastic or have elastic regions, arranging the two textile blanks (10, 20) such that correspondingly designed finger sections (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26) are paired together, and connecting the two textile blanks (10, 20) directly together along the longitudinal extension of the finger sections (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26) at the edge regions thereof in order to form finger sleeves (50). In a relaxed state, at least one finger section (22, 23, 24, 25, 26) of the second textile blank (20) is shorter than the opposing paired finger section (12, 13, 14, 15, 16) of the first textile blank (10) and is stretched upon connecting the finger section (22, 23, 24, 25, 26) of the second textile blank (20).
