These handwarmers are very versatile – they can be knitted in one colour, in two colours as above, or with a shorter arm length. Whatever takes your fancy. The pattern is quite simple and I absolutely love them. I knitted them originally in Alpaca (the yarn is a mix 50% alpaca and 50% wool) and then decided to knit them in lighter coloured in merino wool and they have a totally different look. They would be gorgeous in cashmere. Whatever you can afford. Hope you enjoy knitting them.
