Repurpose old socks

[Charlie Bravo_imp]

So I had an old pair of expensive cashmere socks that developed a hole in one toe. Kept wearing them, hole getting bigger, but they're so comfy and warm I don't want to just toss them. Back in November, I'd been looking for another pair of gauntlet gloves to keep the 50 degree air from coming up the sleeve. Got to be January, then February, had still not bought any. I need some kind of air dam to keep that air out.... I spotted the aforementioned socks. Idea. I slit the toes open, slipped them over my hands and folded a bit of the elastic part onto my wrist, put my jacket on, and viola! Cashmere wristlets! They work great!
