The All Angles fingerless mittens came about in Spring. You know that time of year when things are chilly, but you want to be outside anyways. And office buildings are starting to turn on the air conditioning, even though it’s still cold most days, and everyone is freezing. These fingerless mittens are for those kinds of days.

I love the look of corrugated ribbing, and wanted that to be the highlight of these mittens. It works great for fingerless mittens because it keeps the mittens fairly tight to your hands while staying stretchy - very helpful when you’re wearing them and you want to type or knit!
