Cute fingerless gloves

A lot of glove patterns I found seemed quite complicated, or where crochet (which I just can't seem to get the hang of), but then I stumbled across these on Pintrest:  Fable Mitts - Free Knitting Pattern

I decided to make a pair for my sister, so chose a multi-coloured purple yarn which I thought she'd like. 

I found the pattern really easy to follow and because you are making it for your hand (or a similar sized hand) you can keep measuring it up as you go so you don't make it too big/small. Once you've made the main glove, there is a cute band to make and then simply chose a button you like and you are done; they didn't take that long to make, and make great gifts:
