Glittens are a glove-mitten hybrid. Mittens keep your fingers together for warmth, but gloves give more dexterity. The glitten gives you the best of both worlds with warmth and dexterity built right in. This is especially helpful for hunters, dog walkers, and others who need finger/thumb dexterity during cold weather. With the addition of a special thread designed to take the place of the biological contact needed for texting on electronic gadgets, the glittens range of use is increased. With the exception of the cuff, these glittens are stranded throughout so you have a double layer of warmth to keep your hands warm while you watch those exciting Winter Games and text photos and news to your friends!

Handspinners: if you have 200 yards of fingering weight for each of the two colors, you will have plenty of yarn for even the largest size.
