Another favorite are these gloves I posted before: Connectivity from Knitty - fingerless mitts which fold back to expose gloved fingers made from yarn with silver so you can use your phone with them on. They were difficult to make but they turned out so well. I actually made two pairs and I’ll never make another because the yarn isn’t being made anymore but really because it’s too fiddly to make the individual fingers for gloves and I can’t be bothered anymore. #knitting #FinishorFrogAlong

@consumablejoy@wandering.shop I still have a couple of bobbins of that yarn. Never made the gloves.

@consumablejoy@wandering.shop How do the fingers work for things like typing on your phone? I love the idea of conductive gloves, but everything I've tried ends up being too broad and squishy for anything other than basic point-and-click actions. In all but the coldest weather I've moved to loose mittens that can easily be pulled off and put back on if I need to use the phone.
