Fingerless Gloves



5-10
Here are 3 variations of fingerless mitts that I made. They seem to be the rage right now. The green is a "Four Seasons" wool/cotton yarn with a lacy gull wing panel. The blue is Fiesta yarn with a diamond pattern. The
brown/beige is "Shadows" with a single cable.
They are surprisingly warm. I guess you really don't lose a lot of heat from your fingertips. It also permits you to do a lot more with your hands than is possible with traditional mittens. It is easier to drive, scrape windows, or even KNIT. They work up quickly too. One mitt equals about 2 TV shows. If you are on my Christmas list, you should probably get your order in-- color, pattern,length of cuff etc!! Back to work tonite. Noanie
