Celtic Gloves keep your fingers warm while allowing you to do all the things. More versatile than mittens and warmer than fingerless mitts, these soft alpaca gloves feature a double infinity Celtic knot on the hand that forms out of the 2x2 ribbing. NOTE—yarn is very soft with a luxurious feel. For a harder-wearing glove intended for daily wear, substitute alpaca for wool
