Watch It!
These gloves are designed to let you use your smartwatch without taking them off. The watch is accessed via a special flap built into the watch hand’s wrist, and conductive thread on the tip of the forefinger enables you to access the touch screen.
The watch flap uses clear snaps to hold it in place, which means you can close the watch opening and wear them as normal gloves. Because it is worked as a double-sided cable pattern, the gloves look attractive whether the flap is up or down. To accommodate the flap, the cuff is worked in pieces and stitched together before starting the hand.
