I was away visiting my family for a couple of weeks. While there I saw in a shop a nice (very expensive) sweater made in crochet (with knitted cuffs and collar) and I really liked the stitch. I took a photo and here is my take on the stitch. I was just making a small sample which works better in the round because of the two colours and then I thought... this would make a nice pair of wrist warmers!
Now, I like the look of wrist warmers but does anybody really wear them?
Please tell me if you do!
Best wishes,

It is a cute stitch! I'd say people can still wear wrist warmers. I have bad wrists and wear them sometimes.
ReplyDeleteI wear them to help with wrist pain from knitting and crochet
ReplyDeleteGreat! :)
ReplyDeleteSince I am almost always cold, I would wear them. ;)
I do like the look of them, works well in two colours. I don’t know who wears them, but I can say that fingerless gloves are popular on my market table. A bit longer than your wrist warmers.
ReplyDeleteWhen its cold I sometimes wear glove with mittens overtop. My fingers get cold, not my wrists so no I wouldn't wear them. Sadly I missed the pattern draw, will it be available for sale?
ReplyDeleteHi Bernice, thank you for your comment. Yes, the pattern will be available in my shop soon, I've been a bit disorganised and not got around to making the listing yet. Thank you for your interest!
DeleteOh, yes, I wear wrist warmers in cold weather. Sometimes I even wear them when I sleep. I usually make mine rather long, so they keep part of my forearm warm, and they often have a hole for my thumb, then the rest of the wrist warmer extends to cover at least an inch or two of 'fingers,' also.
ReplyDeleteYour crochet stitch is very pretty. It looks like it would be nice and warm. A whole sweater made with that stitch would be lovely, too.

I wear them when it's cold. Last year I made them for the high school kids, and I've seen some of them wearing them already.
ReplyDeleteI do because my sleeves are never long enough for my long arms!
ReplyDeleteI love the stitch, not sure if anyone wears them but I would, they will certainly keep you warm
ReplyDeleteBeautiful wrist warmers! So far I haven't worn wrist warmers at home (too many messy tasks to do) but I think they'd look very nice to wear going out.
ReplyDeleteI'm grateful for the sense of community your blog has fostered among its readers.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea!! Wish I had thought of it! Now as I have gotten older and stay colder this would be a great help!
