Cozy Wrist Warmers
Pattern: Joelle Hoverson Wrist Warmers from Last Minute Knitted Gifts. Also available for free at Canadian Living.
Yarn: ArtFibers Kantuta 100% super baby alpaca / 94 yds, 50 grams. 1 Skein
Time: 2 days
Notes: I love, love, love this yarn. The hubby bought this in San Francisco. If you're ever there, check out ArtFibers. They make the most glorious yarns - all natural fibers.
I changed the pattern a bit and put in an extra repeat. I also knitted these on double points instead of the 8" circs, which would have driven me crazy. Because of the double pointed needles, I got a bit of stretch near the thumb opening. You'll see it in the photo, however, it's difficult to see while you're wearing these yummy warmers.

Super cute! Since it's recently been in the low 70's I can't even fathom making something like this...but before I know it MN will be chilly again.
