It’s winter, I’m out walking and my phone rings. By the time I’ve struggled to get my gloves off and phone out, the caller has rung off! Hence the flip top mittens with mini beanie hats over fingers and thumb which flip off in an instant!
These are a great gift for anyone, but particularly the texting generation. They are also a lovely way to show off a hand dyed variegated yarn by accenting it with a solid colour yarn.
