Wrist warmer yarn

[ohfourfoxache]

Anyone have any recommendations?

What kind of texture are you after?

I've made crochet ones with Stylecraft dk. Washes well and is soft. For a bit of luxury I would prob use Debbie Bliss baby cashminio (sp?)

What size of hook is usually used and can I ask do you have a pattern xx

You need ravelry Hippychick78 www.ravelry.com/patterns/search#view=large_mobile&sort=best&pc=cuffs

It's amazing, you can filter on about anything you can think of - yarn weight, yardage, type of stitches, crochet or knitting.

For wrists you probably want something soft and not a rustic wool that could irritate. I really like Drops wool, it's affordable and has a good range of colours.

Thanks I'll check the link

Im finishing up a project and should have some left over and hopefully some nice baby wool double knitting

I bought these and would love to be able to make similar

These

They look nice :) I used a 4mm hook with my stylecraftdk. I just did a rectangle and then joined it together leaving a hole for my thumb. so I do get cold thumbs! Do it tighter than you expect cos it loosens off a bit.

I bet you could easily slip stitch a thumb cover around the gap?

I should try it. I can always unpick it if it doesn't work.

Alpaca. I made a pair of wristwarmers by adapting Cookie A's sock pattern "pomatomus" on Ravelry and they are soooo cosy.
