Lego Minifig Mittens Are Also Good for Robots

LEGO Minifig Hand Syndrome, or LMHS. It’s a common problem that afflicts many of us. It comes from playing with LEGO for too many hours straight. Your hand begins to cramp and before you know it, you have a LEGO minifig hand. But don’t worry. Despite your ability to grasp things like a robot, and your limited ability to do anything involving fingers, there is a glove for you.

These LEGO minifig mittens are perfect. They were made by Carissa, a crafter in Dallas. They are obviously inspired by the hands of LEGO minifigs. They will keep you warm and are also perfect for LEGO cosplay.

Don’t let LMHS slow you down. Wear these mittens. You can find the complete pattern here.

Fingerless Mittens with Spiky Scales: Glove Puppet

These neat knitted mittens by Etsy seller HotScones add +2 to warmth and +5 to charisma. They’re made of alpaca fleece and wool. Probably from a wool dragon. I see a lot of potential in this. Instead of settling for a generic dragon or dinosaur look, why not go for a specific item? We can have Wolverine mittens, Omni-tool mittens, PIP-Boy mittens…

Ryu mittens, Kazuya Mishima mittens, Infinity Gauntlet mittens…

Shin Megami Tensei gauntlet mittens, Mega Buster mittens, Power Glove mittens… the possibilities are endless. You can order the HotScones’ mittens from her Etsy shop for around $43 (USD) to $48 per pair. Unfortunately the green ones shown here are sold out as of this writing. Even more unfortunate, my awesome ideas for mittens don’t exist yet.
