When my friend Carrie requested some dog-walking mitts to match a hat I made her, she mentioned that she sometimes needed her fingers. I made this mitt as a compromise between fingerless mitts and full mittens. Cute and fancy, but also practical.

Brilliant! I need to whip some copycats up right away to use whilst reading and waiting for the El. Nothing is worse than trying to turn a book page in mittens… Happy almost Spring!
Wow,those are great. Much better than pulling your sleeves down over your fingers like I do, I really need to make a pair of those.
love them. seriously:: head-over-heels. brilliant!
i just found these on ravelry and i absolutely LOVE them. your work is amazing- just really fun & funky. i found you on ravelry, then looked for your book in borders (i think) and was so excited to see that you are from Missoula. i live in Bozeman w/ my hubby and our baby girl! i have a copy of your book now too, YAH! i just have to find it, i hid it somewhere so my daughter wouldn’t rip out pages- she loves it too :)

I just found this place, and it looks really good so far. Looks like a place I can spend alot of time at.
thanks for the nice compliment :) and nice to meet you!
Oooo! I absolutely adore these button back mitts (I love a good mitt in general!). Problem is I don’t knit, Cosy! I may need to learn just for these!
