In the Wide World the Wood-elves lingered in the twilight of our Sun and Moon but loved best the stars; and they wandered in the great forests that grew tall in lands that are now lost.
- JRR Tolkien; The Hobbit

These glovelettes are a combination of a leaf lace pattern and subtle beading. They remind me of the trees and the stars that the woodelves in The Hobbit loved so dearly.

The gloves are worked mostly in the round but are worked flat in the middle to create a thumb opening. A shell crochet edging finishes the design.

The pattern is available in M and L size, both of which are worked with the same instructions but with different needle sizes/gauge.

Combine your favorite lace weight yarn with beautiful beads to make these elegant short fingerless gloves.

the pattern has been update in January 2015 to fix the errors that the wonderful KatieK has spotted. Make sure you use the most up to date version of the pattern
