BEAUTIFUL Fingerless Gloves pattern

The Arboretum: Skaði Fingerless Gloves

I LOVE the pattern on these fingerless gloves...
definitely have to try this one

Skaði Fingerless Gloves

Skaði is the Norse goddess and giantess associated with skiing, mountains and winter. These fingerless gloves are a snug choice for winter, using moss stitch to create a dense yet stretchy fabric.
