These mittens feature a leaf-like lace pattern growing out of a rolled cuff and climbing up the back of the hand, and they end with a pointed tip. I think they look like mittens that a woodland creature would wear, if woodland creatures wore mittens.

The pattern is charted. Skills required include knitting and purling, working in the round, M1L and M1R increases, working a yarn over, k2tog, ssk, and sk2p.
