Hand cover is a term used to describe items that are worn on the hands to keep them warm and protected. The most common hand covers are mittens, which have six letters, MUFF, which has four letters, and GLOVE, which has five letters. Mittens are two separate pieces of fabric that are connected at the top and cover the fingers together. Muffs are usually made of fur or other soft material and are worn around the hands to keep them warm. Gloves are individual pieces of fabric that cover each finger separately. All three items are designed to keep the hands warm and protected from the elements.
