Rhinebeck Wristers

Get inspired by the vibrant colors of autumn leaves at the Rhinebeck Sheep & Wool Festival with our charming wristlet knitting pattern! These stylish wristlets can be worn alone or perfectly paired with the Rhinebeck Hat for a coordinated and trendy look this season.

Our wristlets are designed to be worked in the round, ensuring a clean and seamless finish. The intricate charts provided are also to be read in the round, with each row starting from right to left, making it easy for you to follow along as you knit.

Utilizing the beautiful technique of Fair Isle knitting, you will enjoy creating a stunning array of colors. In every round, remember to carry any unused color loosely on the wrong side of your work to maintain flexibility. Secure any long floats every 4-6 stitches as necessary, and for larger sections dominated by a single color, stagger the float placements for a balanced and even fabric.

For this exciting project, you'll need the delightful Cascade Yarns 220 Superwash, a 100% superwash wool that boasts both quality and versatility. Each ball weighs 3.5oz/100g and contains 220 yards/200m, giving you ample yarn to create your masterpiece. You will need 1 ball of #823 Burnt Orange (A) and 1 ball of #802 Green Apple (B) to bring the rich autumn colors to life!

To get started, grab a set of 4 double-pointed needles in Size 6 US (4mm) or adjust to obtain the correct gauge, ensuring your wristlets fit perfectly. Additional notions such as stitch markers and a stitch holder will be handy as you work through this enchanting pattern.

Embrace the spirit of fall and elevate your wardrobe with these exquisite wristlets—perfect for chilly days and stylish outings!
