lemonade...

When life hands you lemons (holes in your favorite argyle socks) you can make lemonade. (Ignore the callous... it is winter in MN, I haven't had a pedicure in MONTHS!)1) wash you socks
2) cut off the foot portion
3) turn sock inside out, fold over 1/2" of the edge you just cut. Set sewing machine on a zig zag stitch (so you will have some stretch) & sew around the opening.
4) try on your fingerless gloves and pinch a spot between your thumb & fingers. Put a stitch here (machine OR hand stitch)
5) Enjoy! These fingerless gloves are great - keep you hands warm & your fingers free for working on the computer of other craft projects in the cold basement.

Peep-a-doo didn't care for them on.

Thanks Disney for another lovely upcycle idea :)
