hens, glovans, countrymen, lend me your ears! last month in may, i went up to davis for the whole earth festival. for those of you that have been following since the beginning of lonesome glove, you will remember that this blog started in davis, california! it was great to be back in my old college town, especially during springtime. i had hopes that i might find a glove while up there, and thankfully, i did! after spending three glorious days in davis at the festival, i was preparing to return to reality. thankfully, before i left, i found TWO gloves on 3rd street near crepeville. i clutched the dirty, leafy gloves in my left hand for quite a long time while strolling around downtown. finally, i stopped in miskha's cafe to get a coffee and a brown paper bag to deposit the gloves in. the gloves flew back down to los angeles with me and waited patiently for their turn to be rehabbed. a month later, after i finished student teaching, i finally had time to address the two gloves!they started off as two black fingerless gloves (the previous owner had cut off the fingers! how cruel!). i sewed the finger holes shut, stuffed the gloves, and attached them at the wrist to create a very tall chicken-y form. one thumb and forefinger stuck out and looked a little bit like a beak, so i sewed them together into a pouty-chicken-kissy-face. cuuuuuuuuuuute! cluck.
