Cozy hand-knit fingerless mitts to keep your hands warm, but your fingers free. Choose from several hand-dyed merino colors – no two are exactly alike! Personally, I use mine year round – my hands always get chilly working at the computer when the AC is running, so these merino mitts are my personal favorite accessory, yes even in the summer! Merino is a stretchy fiber, known for both its warmth and moisture-wicking properties. The smooth fleece is almost silky to the touch. It’s a perfect spring fiber! And the hand-dyed options means your accessories can be as unique as you! Care: hand wash cold, lay flat to dry The hand-dyed merino in these fingerless mitts primarily comes from a family owned farm that prioritizes hiring marginalized women to offer job opportunities. They use yarn from their own farm and from other merino farms that prioritize ethical treatment of their animals. This company takes care to minimize the environmental impact of their professional dyes. Other yarn for these mitts comes from indie dyers who prioritize ethically sourced yarn and minimizing the environmental impact of their dyes.
