It was back in 2007(!) when I blogged about these incredible mermaid gloves that I had discovered on the internets. That was back when you had to crank a handle to connect your modem to the operator and put in a ha'penny for every half-hour you wanted to spend online.
I point out how long ago this was because it was in the winter of 2010 that I completed the first of my own mermaid gloves. They languished for a year and now I have two! They are magical! Behold:
The main difference between these and the original is that I didn't make half-fingers, they're just fingerless entirely. Also I chose a yarn that is bluey-green, threaded with silver, and subtly shaded.

Now I wear these every day and wait til the creeks are warm enough to touch again.
