Ferryboat Mitts

*In 2 sizes & 2 lengths* Pefect for a foggy morning commute across Puget Sound. Or keyboarding with the thermostat down. Or texting. Or knitting out of doors. We love these handsome ribbed mitts on men and women alike. One fellow told us that our thumb gusset reminded him of a sweep of chrome on a car, so we knew we'd hit a nice masculine note! ---------------- FINISHED SIZES Ribbed throughout, these mitts will fit a wide range of hand sizes.
