Amanda’s Hand Warmers is the pattern that combines classic granny squares with easy knitting. This pattern is perfect for using 10 g mini skeins, small amounts of yarn left from other projects in solid or semi-solid colors.

Skill level - advanced beginner.

3-round granny squares are first crocheted, blocked and joined in a flat 3-square panel, then stitches are picked up and worked flat in stripes divided by garter ridges on both sides of the granny square panel. Then both sides joined into a tube with 3-Needle BO. Cuffs on both sides are added afterwards.
