Pattern : "Mitts with Beads" fingerless gloves

It is made in Orenburg lace pattern and is worked seamlessly and simultaneously with the main part of a glove, forming a lovely scalloped edge. Glass beads, incorporated in the lace pattern, meant to emphasize a sophisticated look. These fingerless gloves are knitted on straight needles in garter stitch and lace pattern. Thumb gusset is created using one of the short row techniques. Grafting completes each glove. Tutorials for all essential techniques necessary for this project are included in this pattern for convenience of a novice knitter.
