You need 460 yards of sock yarn to make the gloves with a bit left over -- 230 to make the fingerless mitts. To make the set buy enough sock yarn to make a pair (gloves) and to make 1 sock (mitts) and add a bit from your stash in a compatible color (about 10-12 yards) This is a long (10 page) pattern that has many pictures and goes into some detail and is for both the gloves and the mitts. You can, of course, make either the gloves or the mitts separately but together they are very elegant and extremely toasty. They actually make you look forward to Maine winters.
