I am cold in the winter and bundle up in hoodies and fuzzy socks, and I’m cold in the summer because everywhere you go the AC is turned up so high.
Because of this, I have found something to help keep those chills at bay, fingerless gloves!
These gloves are amazing! I love that my fingers are free so I can wear them while typing at my computer (in fact, I’m wearing them now), I can still easily turn the pages of my favorite book, and I can pretty much wear them all day.

Open up the socks and cut off the toes.
To measure where the thumb hole should be, place your hand on top of the sock where you want the edge to lay on your hands.
I wanted the edge to be just above the knuckles.
Cut a small slit where the bottom knuckle of your thumb is. You don’t need to cut a big hole because the fabric will stretch.
Use the first sock as your pattern and cut a slit in the second sleeve in the same place.
Try the sleeve on and it should fit perfectly. You’ll see how the slit stretches to the right size to fit your thumb.

The next pair we are going to make are short fingerless gloves. We’ll use the same size socks but just cut them a different way.
