Brownlow Wristwarmers
Embrace the charm of London's Dickensian streets with our beautifully designed nubbly stitch wristwarmers. These cozy accessories not only keep your arms warm during those chillier days but also add a touch of elegance to your outfit. Crafted in a delicate garter rib pattern, these wristwarmers feature a flattering stripe of stockinette along the inside wrist, providing a stunning texture contrast that is both functional and stylish.
The wristwarmers are simply knitted in the round, making them perfect for knitters of all skill levels. To add a thumbhole, you’ll just turn the work and knit flat for a few rows before rejoining, allowing for easy customization. This straightforward method makes these wristwarmers an excellent project for beginners or anyone looking to refine their knitting skills.
