ABOUT THE PATTERN
Soft, warm wrist warmers that make you think of summer and the sun. The combination of Alpaca Silk and Friends Kid Silk is ideal if you find that wool is itchy.

The wrist warmers are worked bottom up which provides the opportunity to adjust the length to your preferences. They feature a classic cable pattern as well as a ribbing at the top and bottom. The cable pattern is suitable for beginners who want to try working a pattern.

In the pattern, the following techniques are used: increases, magic loop and Italian bind off. It is possible to knit the wrist warmers without these techniques by using double pointed needles instead of magic loop and binding off ordinarily instead of following the Italian bind off technique. It is important to bind off loosely so that the top edge does not become too tight.
