Fingerless Gloves

January 21, 2009

I am sitting in my office-in-the-garage, slowly turning to ice. I mentioned this fact on twitter and received back several suggestions for good-looking fingerless gloves. Like these from Tinker and Po. And these from KnitTwits.

It’s kind of fun that I have a legitimate need for fingerless gloves.

Share and Enjoy:

We can’t find gloves that are small enough and he gets so frustrated with mittens that he generally pulls them off. I think these would be a good compromise. Thanks for the idea!

Note to self: Get office cum garage.
