The fall issue of Knitty was released today and we couldn’t be happier to see one of our dear friends, Mari featured in this issue. Mari’s Connectivity gloves, features The Fibre Company’s Canopy Worsted as well as The Feel Good Yarn Company’s Silverspun to create a pair of smart phone friendly mittens perfect for the upcoming fall and winter season. Plus, check out the bottom of this blog post for a Connectivity gloves giveaway!
Featuring Canopy Worsted in Sumac (left) and Obsidian (right) alongside The Feel Good Yarn Company’s SilverSpun for the fingers, these gloves will keep your hands warm with a practical twist. SilverSpun features actual silver within the plyed yarn so you can use your touch screen device while keeping your hands warm. Not to mention that SilverSpun has an entire list of therapeutic qualities to help those with diabetes, arthritis and sensitive skin.
The Feel Good Yarn Company has kitted up the Connectivity gloves and they’re available for purchase on the company’s website, here. The kit includes a skein of SilverSpun and Canopy Worsted perfect for on-the-go fall knitting.
We’ll be giving away a Connectivity glove kit to one of our lucky readers!

How practical! I would use Parakeet, because subtle colors are just not my thing.
Very cool! Macaw is a great color.
I love Macaw as well as any shade of gray.
I’m Goodstuff on Rav…
Laguna or maybe guava. Wonderful gloves!
That Sumac is gorgeous, but Parakeet won me over!
I would choose Acai, beautiful! Thanks for the chance to win.
Mango, mango, mango! My favourite summer fruit and the perfect pop of colour under winter woolies to keep the grey clouds of winter away.
Love these! I use Quetzal for myself, and I can see making more of these as gifts for friends.
Wouldn’t I knit those up for my daughter in Mackaw, though as my first gloves the fingers would be tricky!
I’m a Crocus person – love, love, love purple!
Oooh, I think I would pick Obsidian and then the gloves would match anything in my wardrobe.
Congrats, Shana, you’re the winner of our contest! Send an email to info@kelbournewoolens.com with your address to claim your prize!
Those are so cool!
Guava, mmmm!
I would love to knit a pair of these lovely mittens in the color Quetzal!
I would knit these gloves in Sarsparilla 🙂
River Dolphin has such an elegant sheen to it–I think I would love a pair of these gloves in that color! What a fun design!
The sumac colorway is gorgeous!
