I love your project. I have arthritis, but I love to crochet so I'm always looking for gloves to keep my joints warm so I can crochet longer without pain. Thank you

OMIGOD this is a great idea! I love toe socks and I never want to throw them away when they get holes in them. Thank you!!!!!

these are so cute that i made some of my own just what i was looking for :3

hahah Haluk, true, but that would make them VERY long. This way you get a better lined thumb hole, and the thick band will be at your wrist instead of your elbow.

lol @huluk i agree

Ah what a good idea, well the only pair of toe-socks I have do not get on with me, that's probably of my damn chunky calves. They will make great fingerless gloves... I need some gloves anyways Thanks for the great tip.

Lol why not just cut off the tops and stick it on your hand?

And mine are longer so They keep my arms warm when I wear my leather jacket.

And if you are lazy(they call me half-ass heather) you can actually get away with just snipping the tips. Sure the thumb is a little ackward. They don't unravel or anything.

oh wow! i hate myself for not thinking of this!!! i LOVE toe-socks!!!! I've got so many pairs that i wore out but like you couldn't throw them away! I'm so fixing to go round up all my poor socks and put them to good use. Thank you for sharing!

the colour is soooooooooo amazing......great job!!!!!!!!!!

superr

wow very cool work ^^
i like the idea how you dowing this ^^

I love those rainbow socks.

GENIUS!
zomg.
I love you
o.o

i did exactly this with my old toe socks except i was super lazy and i just cut the tops of the toes off...so the thumb was really awkward.
but i turn normal knee high socks into gloves too only im also lazy and i just cut the tops off so there are no individual finger holes.
but they do keep my hands warm like that cause my school is freezing and my hands are cold all the time.
plus i love my tall socks so i couldnt bare to though them away. they just all get turned into gloves. : )

great tutorial by the way!

okay you are officially my crafting hero! I love toe socks and I am going to tuck you in my pocket and hide you were we will craft all day long and rule the world!lol!

@_@ You can do that!?

Why didn't I think of that?????
Great idea, great tute.
Thanks for sharing.
