These heart fingerless gloves / wrist warmers are perfect to show off your love: they’re easy yet fun to knit up!

All instructions are written, the colorwork is both charted and written.

Skill level: easy.

Techniques: knit/purl in the round, increase, basic stranded colorwork.

Yarn: Any fingering weight yarn. The samples were made in Katia Sweet Baby yarn. But any sock yarn will work fine too. I suggest either wool or acrylic, cotton or bamboo won’t stretch as much. Make sure there is good contrast between main color and contrasting color for optimal result.

Main color: 1 50 grams ball = about 200 yards.
Contrasting color: about 15 grams = 60 yards.

Size:
Small / Medium (S/M) = to fit 7 to 8.5” (18-21.5 cm) around hand.
Medium / Large (M/L) = to fit 8.5 to 10” (21.5-25.5 cm) around hand.
Total length is 5.5” (14 cm) - adjustable

Tools: Size US 2 / 2.75 mm double pointed needles (or long circular needle if you prefer magic loop) or size to get gauge; tapestry needle; scissors; 2 stitch markers; stitch holder or small length of waste yarn.
