Fingerless Mitts

Last year I was treated with the most wonderful pattern for Fingerless Mitts at Craftzine.  I have since added embellishments to the pattern, including embroidery, felting and buttons.  They have evolved.  Feeling the cooler evenings the past few days has encouraged me to once again pull out the felting foam and needles. 
All of the gloves are made from re purposed material. Leggings, sweaters and t shirts.
The pattern is simple and fun to work with so here is the link at craftzine in case you would like to make some of your own.. Craftzine Fingerless Mitt Pattern
 Made from a heavy weight t-shirt.. felted butterfly and catapillar
 Re-purposed leggings, felted pedals, embroidered stem and button
The felting on this one was done off the fabric and sewn on.
 This is the first one I made from a re-purposed light weight cardigan
