FASHION STATEMENT SOCK GLOVES

     Very cold hands create stress and trauma to the body.  If you do not have a pair of gloves to keep your hands warm in cold weather, following are a couple of suggestions.

     It is also useful to know that it has been proven to be warmer to wear gloves with the finger tips missing than it is to wear full finger gloves.  And conveniently this allows the finger tips to be free so they can be used.

      If nothing else is available, hands can be warmed by simply wrapping the palms and most of the fingers with a strip of cloth which is then either tied or taped to hold in place.

     Rustic "Fashion Statement Sock Gloves" which are very warm can be created from a pair of old (or new) socks.


      Simply cut the tip off across the very end of the sock toe for your fingers to fit through.  The idea is then to tuck the cut end of the sock foot under to leave as little or as much of your fingers free as you desire.


     Then cut a very small hole (you will find that it will stretch open very easily - so perhaps start with a 1cm circle) at the point of the heel.  This is for you to put your thumb through.

      This leaves what was originally the top of the sock to keep your wrists warm.  When you do not need your thumb free you simply pull it inside the sock.  I find these fashion statement sock-gloves far more comfortable and practical than conventional gloves, and they wash so easily!
