Short Mesh Wrist Warmers

by saraphir
Follow me

I made these wrist warmers at the end of last winter when I moved into a very cold house and I needed to keep the draught out. I like them short because they don’t obstruct your hands – no need to take them off when eating or washing your hands. At some point I would like to make them longer so that they cover more of the arm and hand …. maybe next year. I have since made them for sale at markets and in shops in different colours.

Short Mesh Wrist Warmers

I use Drops Babyalpaca Silk with a 3 mm crochet hook. The yardage of the yarn is 167 m per 50 g – in case you want to use other yarns. This yarn is very soft both to work with and to wear – it is not itchy like some woollen yarns are and is of good quality. Drops write on their website that it has not been treated with chemicals which is right up my street! The instructions are in UK crochet terms, but there is a translation into US terms in the document. The wrist warmers are very simple to make and suitable for beginners. I give instructions for just one size (women’s), but if you want them narrower or wider you can increase the initial chains by multiples of two. You may have to alter the last row along the top if you do, but it is fairly easy. The pattern is available in US and UK terms below, you can see a guide to the abbreviations on the page Crochet Terms.

Please remember that this is my design and my copyright. You’re most welcome to use the pattern for yourself, but please do not copy, reproduce, translate or publish it as your own. If you sell what you make or post pictures of your makes I would appreciate if you mention where you got the pattern and direct people to my site. Thanks!

    […] I am finally getting on with my to-do list and the next thing to tick off is to make the pattern for these easy and snug wrist warmers available for others to use. Being a tall Scandinavian in Britain is not always easy clothes-wise, as it is very hard to find clothes that that are long enough – trousers, coats, shirts… you name it! For the last many winters these wrist warmers have been an absolute mainstay in my wardrobe – I wear them every day (or the mesh ones that I made first -you can find the pattern for those ones here).
