blog #344 >> Fall Wrist Warmers


I finally finished them!
I'm very proud of this pair, I'm getting better with each one. I used the double moss stitch and the classic garter. The pattern if you want it is:
Cast on 31 stitches. (Cast on more if you have larger wrists, but always use an odd number.)
6 rows garter (knit every row)
28 rows double moss stitch
(1st row — k1, p1, k1, p1, k1, p1... to end.)
(2nd row - p1, k1, p1, k1, p1, k1,... to end.)
(3rd row - p1, k1, p1, k1, p1, k1,... to end.)
(4th row - k1, p1, k1, p1, k1, p1... to end.)
(repeat these 4 rows.)
26 rows garter (knit every row)
cast off.
Sew together top four rows, and sew together from double moss stitch down, leaving the thumb hole in between. (Oh, right! Gauging... I used #5 knitting needles and sport weight yarn.)
And there you have it!

These are very pretty and look easy enough. What size needles did you use.
