Fingerless Gloves Made by Meg



Congratulations to the three winners in the 
GIVEAWAY hosted by MADE BY MEG!

Jackie Johnson - you have won a pair of Mixed Berry gloves
Belley Family - you have won a pair of Purple gloves
Amy - you have won a pair of Strawberry Pink gloves
(winners please email your mailing address to: fresheggsdaily@gmail.com)

Thanks to all who entered! If you didn't win but want to purchase a pair of gloves, or anything else in Meg's shop, Meg is offering 15% off if you use the coupon code FED15.

Several months ago I saw Meg's gorgeous handknit fingerless gloves on Etsy. Being a fairly accomplished knitter myself, I was immediately drawn to the beautiful colors, intricate pattern and quality craftsmanship. I contacted Meg and she turned out to be a sweetheart. She sent me two pair of gloves to 'review'. She also agreed to send THREE lucky winners a pair of gloves in the color of their choice!


Fingerless gloves have all kinds of uses around the farm. Regular gloves or mittens just aren't functional when you need to untie baling string, open small latches, take a photo, answer your cell phone or any of the other myriad of chores that we all do around our homesteads.

I love to feel the warmth of a freshly laid egg....


I love the softness of my hens' feathers....


I love to feel downy duck bellies....

I love to feel the sticky horse feed run through my fingers. (better sticky fingers than sticky gloves right?)...

I love to feel our horses' soft noses at they nuzzle for a treat....

And of course I need my finger free to take photos on my cell phone!

Bottom line, sometimes I just need my fingers to be free and Megs' gloves do just that while keeping my hands and wrists toasty warm.   And just look at these colors!
