Dear Friends,
A friend asked me for a pair of mittens that that you can tank the
fingers when need. Maybe a slit under the palm near the fingers. I did
not want to ask to many questions to give away my true intentions.
Could any one please point me in the right directions.
Hugs & God bless,
Dennis & Gail

Those are sometimes called hunter's mittens, though IMO a hunter's
mitten has a separate finger. Fences, Fox and Geese has in it a pattern
for those sort of mittens. Some people call them glittens.
Make a pair of gloves, then pick up stitches across the back of the hand
below the knuckles, cast up an equal number, join for knitting in the
round and knit a mitten tip.

Hi Dennis! I just did a google search and found a couple of pages for you.
They will come in handy (no pun intended. hehe) for me too. My brother
mentioned years ago that he would like the gloves with the mitten flap on
them because he shoes horses and does a lot of other farm work which make
him have to remove his gloves/mittens to free his fingers. I can't work
with the double pointed needles, so I couldn't make him any. However, I
spotted a crochet pattern I could try, and there could be at least one
two-needle pattern somewhere there too, I didn't look at them all. Enjoy, I
hope you find what you're looking for! :o)
