Because a couple people mentioned it, this is the pattern for my "18th Century Mitts". They have a thumb opening and another large opening for the rest of the fingers to go through. I made them using a medium-weight wool yarn - I suggest Patons Classic Wool for something easy to find in a crafting store. Also, you will need a set of 5 double-pointed needles (yes, you need all 5, for the part when you end up with the thumb and the rest of the hand separated.) I used US size 5, or 3.75 mm.
They were made to fit my arms, so the pattern may need to be adjusted if you want a larger/smaller/longer/shorter size (or if you use a different yarn).
I'm not sure how coherent the pattern is... I wrote it down as I worked, so I could make it again, but I'm not sure how much my understanding it was based on my pre-existing notion of the finished product. If you are relatively experienced with knitting, it should probably make sense... I hope
