6-28-2010: The pattern has been updated to include charts as well as written directions
These gloves remind me of a pair of shoes. 
The pattern calls for the gloves to be laced with 
knitted I-cord, but I think they could also be the 
perfect place to showcase unique shoelaces and 
other unique embellishments. Knit flat with row by 
row instructions, these gloves are a surprisingly quick 
project. The example pair is half fingerless, but tips 
are given for completing the fingers or taking them off 
entirely. As you work the finger stubs, additional 
stitches are picked up along the sides of the gap and 
passed over working stitches to eliminate the need to 
close holes at the end. Basic reference websites are 
provided for techniques used in this pattern.
