Owl Hand Warmers (infosec.pub)

Some hand warmes with an owl cable stitch I finished recently. I didn't have much of a pattern, so I hope this post is still allowed.

Basically, I went off this picture for the owl/kable knit pattern and used some pattern for gloves to get the thumbs right.

I was thinking about maybe adding french knot stitches as eyes to make the owls more prominent, but I think I like the plain version better.

Did not know about these but like the gloves where you have the pop on and off the mitten thing with fingerless gloves. Wife bought these for herself but did not like them. I love them. Easier and better to have real mittens and pop them off with these and like with scarves its massive to have layers where the ends don't align so cold air can't slip in. Sorta wish the finger holes were stitched up or even just one or two so that it would not slip down.
