Free Pattern: Wristwarmers (What I did while waiting for the Olympics to start)
Size:
Small (Teen), Large (Adult)
Materials:
100m chunky weight yarn
1 pair 6mm needles
Tension:
Approximately 20 sts and 20 rows over 10cm/4” square in K2 P2 rib (unstretched) using 6mm needles.
Finished Measurements:
15cm/6” around, approximately
20cm/8” long
Method:
Where two numbers appear, the first is for the Small size, the second for Large. When only one number appears, it applies to both sizes.
Cast on 26 (30) stitches.
Row 1 (Right Side): *K2, P2; repeat from * to last 2 stitches, K2.
Row 2 (Wrong Side): *P2, K2; repeat from * to last 2 stitches, P2.
These two rows establish K2 P2 rib pattern. Repeat Row 1 and 2 until gauntlet measures 4cm/1.5”, ending with a Wrong Side row.
Right gauntlet thumbhole:
Next row (RS): Work 8 (9) stitches in pattern, cast off 3 (4) stitches, work in pattern to end.
Following row (WS): Work 15 (17) stitches in pattern, cast on 3 (4) over gap created by cast-off in previous row, work in pattern to end.
Left gauntlet thumbhole:
Next row (RS): Work 15 (17) stitches in pattern, cast off 3 (4) stitches, work in pattern to end.
Following row (WS): Work 8 (9) stitches in pattern, cast on 3 (4) over gap created by cast-off in previous row, work in pattern to end.
Continue from here in K2 P2 pattern, until gauntlet measures 20cm/8”.
Cast off loosely in pattern.
Seam.
