With fall and winter coming around quickly, we always look for new innovative ways to keep ourselves warm. Nothing is more irritating than cold and stiff fingers when you have the wrong gloves on for your long walk through the woods or waiting for the bus.
If you want to pass the waiting time by reading a book or looking something up on your phone, then the average closed glove is impossible to use.
Fingerless crochet gloves keep your hands warm and free for whatever you want to do. They give you the freedom to swipe your phone, leaf over a page in your book or even when you want to find something in your pockets or purse.
Crochet wrist warmers are a great way to add some individual and handmade style to your outfit.
Fingerless gloves and mittens are an easy crochet project for beginners as they are perfect for practicing new stitches and crochet techniques without spending lots of time on it. This is also great if you want to whip up an individual gift for someone quickly.
