Gloves & mittens

The difference between wool gloves and wool mittens

The difference between gloves and mittens: gloves have fingers and mittens do not. In a glove, each finger must provide its own warmth. In a mitt, the fingers work together, making mittens warmer than gloves. We recommend woolen mittens if your hands get cold easily. Gloves have the great advantage of making it easier to grasp things.
