A friend of mine sent me the link to these mittens made-for-two the other week, thinking them a perfect holiday gift. While my immediate reaction was an endearing “awww…” I couldn’t help but wonder if any couples would actually use this, or if they were just good for a chuckle or two. For what it’s worth, the “Smittens” are made of 100% Polartec fleece, are machine-washable and come with one pair of regular size mittens, and one oversized mitten for hand-holding. So you and your loved one can each sport a mitten on one hand while sharing the jumbo mitten in the middle together.

What do you think? Festive and seasonal gift or just a random gimmick? Want to find out more about the “Smittens?” Go to www.smittens.biz for the whole story and to order a pair for yourself.
