These hand warmers were inspired by my home in the Hudson River Valley of New York State. The river flows to the east and the Catskill Mountains extend to the west. The texture design reflects the meandering river and the contour of the mountains.

As shown, the pair is knitted in personally hand-spun two-ply 50% Black French Angora/50% gray New Zealand Corriedale. Suggested yarn is Kenzie by Hikoo, however any DK weight works fine.
