Office Hours

=Save 30% with code **Office** through October 16, 2024. Discount also valid on [Business Time][1]. Happy fall knitting. Every year, I enjoy the transition to the crisp air of the autumn season. Warm beverages and changing leaves fill the air, and fingerless mitts and a puffy vest become regular staples in my outdoor wardrobe: accessories that provide a bit of extra warmth yet are easily removable for moments of warm sunshine. **OFFICE HOURS** is a knit fingerless mitt design for my ideal autumn day. Knit in DK weight yarn, these cozy fingerless mitts allow me to easily use a pencil and jot down sketches or notes in one of my many notebooks. This reversible design has classic lines and details, making it a great accessory to tuck in your pockets or gift to a friend. **YARN** Leading Men Fiber Arts Targhee Twist DK, 66.6% Non-Superwash Targhee, 33.4% Superwash Targhee, 250 yd / 229 m per 100 g, or similar DK weight yarn, 1 skein.
