The right amount of warmth and softness without the bulk make these gauntlet’s perfect for transitioning from winter in to spring. Especially fun, when worn with a short sleeved t-shirt or right on top of the sleeves of your long sleeved tee. This is a fast and fun project loaded with plenty of skill building opportunities such as; knitting in the round, jogless join, simple cables, slip stitching and working a button hole.
