Sleevos
Whether you think of these as very long fingerless mitts or detached sleeves, they are the perfect accessory for the kid who won’t wear sweaters, for the runner who wants something light to keep them warm, for the office maven who’s getting frozen by air conditioning—and just about anyone else. These knit up quickly and make great gifts!
