Fingerless Gloves by Kate Watts
*NEW DESIGNS*
These limited-edition fingerless gloves are 100% New Zealand Merino (Levana). They are made in NZ by a young textile designer, Kate Watts and handprinted with a hybrid screenprinting technique.
The fingerless gloves are warm and practical. You can still answer the phone, unlock the door and use your fingers whilst wearing them so your hands stay warm and cosy. When not needed to warm the hands you can fold them down and still wear them as cuffs for an added layer and extra warmth.
The stunning motiffs and elegant design means you can wear these day and night - dressed up or down.
Kate's aim is to keep producing short runs to retain the uniqueness of each design, which will also allow her to evolve them over time.

This a a brilliantly simple but exciting game.
Players start by turning on the bomb. When you can say a word that corresponds with the letters on the card selected you get to pass the bomb to the next player. The bomb ticks faster and the fun begins...Just don't let the bomb explode while you are holding it!
This game is recommended by The Garden Party staff who play it because it is fast, simple and great fun. Educational for children (about 8 and up) as it teached word skills, this game is also good exersize for the older brain.
