Quick n' Easy!

Dear Shayne,

After devoting months to these armwarmers that I can't even wear until winter, I felt like I needed a little quick n' easy project that I could wear right away.

So I whipped up these babies:
Army green fingerless mitts

They were a bit of an experiment, as I added thumbs to the pattern I used to make these mitts. They came out all right. I'll probably make more soon, as it's always chilly where I work and they're good for typing.

I've already worn them a few times (and spilled beer on 'em) so that's why they already have the "well loved" look in this photo. Whoops.

Miraculously, I caught the glass of beer I dropped before it hit the ground -- perhaps these fingerless gloves are actually magical. Yeah!

love,
kelly

Good job on the thumbs! Have these shown any more magical powers?

Alas, no. Perhaps they were one hit wonders: They can help you miraculously catch a falling beer *one* time only.

Unless you count "keeping my hands warm" as a magical power?
