The smartest gloves to wear today are those that are crocheted. Smart in appearance -warm- easy to make. This pair, designed by Alice Brooks will meet your needs. You can do the cuffs in a contrasting color as shown, or in the same color wool. The gloves are very effective if the cuff is done in an angora thus adding that furry softness that makes woolens so attractive. Simple to crochet, you will find these gloves finished in a very short time.
