Repair.

The end of January is a terrible time to devlop holes in your gloves, because the stores barely have anything left on the shelves and they're packing up the mittens and hats remaining to make room for Valentine's day St Patrick's Day stuff, gardening decor, and short sleeved shirts. 

I did an awful job darning two huge holes in my gloves, and then covered my miserable darning job with some quick embroidery. I can get another year out of these gloves, I think. Hopefully, I'll have the luxury of hunting down something that is as warm as these are for next year.
