what is this??

can you guess what this is?




It's one of those hand warmers back in the days where ladies wore petticoats, and bonnets. this started out as a fingerless glove project, but it was too big for one hand...(I gagued it and everything...) so I thought hey, i'll just pick up more stitches on the sides...and somehow came up with this... i like it. It's different.

I was trying to think up of more things to make with my chunky yarn...and that was all i came up with. I am so lost without the internet to give me ideas.

Chunky Yarn...insipre me. Or else, i'll just have to make 2 more pairs of slippers.
