These gloves were originally designed as a gift for my Dad, after he joked that he needed a pair of gloves with a tip of one of the index fingers missing so he could take photos in the cold. I realised I needed the same thing - because I kept having to answer phone-calls with my nose! Playing with this idea I decided to also leave off the tip of the thumb, for Dad to use the functions on the back of his camera and for me to have further controls on my smartphone.
Whether you decide to complete all the fingers or make these into fingerless gloves, the pattern is designed to fit a range of sizes, with a different thumb gusset for each left and right glove.
These are particularly lovely worked in the recommended yarn, Rowan Felted Tweed DK.
TENSION 28 sts and 43 rounds to 10x10cm (4x4in) over st st using 3mm (UK 8/US 6) needles
Note - the gauge looks tight for this yarn and it has been queried. However the yarn is fine for a DK and this is correct.

Tell us what you think about it.
I haven't started these yet but I have done a tension sample in the suggested yarn. I always have to choose a different needle size and this pattern is no exception and my sample is nowhere near as tight so I am slightly concerned about that. The pattern itself comes with some useful tips and on a brief read through appears to be clear and easy to understand.
