good morning, everyone!

we noticed many of the photos on our page were very outdated and didn’t showcase the new colors, styles, and sizes we currently have for sale and needed some serious updating - so, here are some samples of the products we offer with sizing and styles shown on each photo!

as always, all of our products are safe to be machine washed and dried. each pair of mittens is made with 2 layers of warm, cozy fleece in addition to the outer layer of wool or cashmere, which makes sure your hands stay toasty warm from the moment you put your mittens on (even if they’re left in your cold car overnight!)

keep in mind this is only a select few of the colors and patterns we have in stock, so be sure to visit us at one of the last two shows of the year (at Boyne City High School or Gypsy Farms) to check out our full inventory!

see you all there! 👋🏼❄️❤️
