Knitpattern in english – Sakura Sleeves are a pair of wrist warmers that can double for a warm decorative sleeve or a kind of cuff. Perfect for cold days in the office and can easily be styled under a button down shirt or other blouses and shirts.
They are knit on doublepointed needles or a circular needle using the magic loop technique with a small rib followed by the Sakura Pattern and finished with a wavy lace edge.
