Pattern provides two sizes, one to be knitted using fingering weight yarn, the other to be knitted using lace weight yarn. This is the entry for the fingering weight pattern, though the PDF contains both.

When I first saw Ysolda Teague’s lace-up opera gloves, I loved them. They are quirky and original and all those things I love. However, they were missing something: fingers! Much as I love gloves, I find fingerless gloves never sit where they have to in my hands. So I decided to knit an alternative version, with half-fingers.

These mittens are knitted from the fingers down, a technique that I found somewhere online when I was looking for an easier way to make gloves. Because there had to be one.
