Freda's Hive: Herringbone Rib Handwarmers

I made myself some handwarmers for the winter season using a hybrid of the pattern from Joelle Hoverson's (owner of Purl Soho ) book Knitted Gifts - and the Herringbone Rib Stitch shown in Vogue Knitting's Stitchionary.

They're very warm, and made from washable cashmerino - which is good, because I'm always doing things with my hands, and therefore managing to get them dirty.-
