Be Mine Hat and Fingerless Gloves Set by knitbyvalerie

This cozy hat and fingerless mitten set by knitbyvalerie was hand-knit with merino wool with a tight-gauge to increase warmth. Finger access is helpful for those who find that regular gloves are too cumbersome.

I have 6 rescues in my home and I have successfully encouraged friends to adopt from shelters. Until recently, I volunteered in the rabbit room at my local public animal shelter and am frequently educating people on the rewards of having house rabbits (rather than caged or hutch rabbits). I started my shop solely to be able to give more to rescues in an economy that would otherwise make it difficult for me.

    We had a house rabbit once. It's so fun to walk in a house and be greeted by a rabbit!
